...Spooky, skillfully made....THE AWAKENING will give you a good scare...
New York Times
The Awakening doesn't create anything new. Its references to The Exorcist, among others, are obvious. [Full Review in Spanish]

Dry-as-dust "possession" fare.

Rating: 2.5/4 --
Twenty-four years after he freed the Israelites, Charlton Heston returned to Egypt to insult the ancient gods again in 'The Awakening.' Let my people go -- to their Netflix queues, to request the erratic but more enjoyable 'Blood from the Mummy's Tomb.'
