My quick rating - 4,1/10. Um, yeah, IMDB...6.4? No way. The flick moves at a snails pace, and that is bad when it doesn't get you anywhere. The acting is over the top silly on purpose, and comes off more pretentious than anything else. The idea is a dress is haunted, and the wearers of it are doomed to dire consequences. Dumb start, but OK. Now if that actually happened, maybe, but instead we are subjected to moronic employers and false accusations. Broken laundry machines? The movie tries so hard to be artsy, funny, and a tad scary and did none of these. I think a 4 is even generous as this movie put me to sleep when I was completely awake (and sober) so that is a really bad sign.
