Lair (2021)
5/10
Cursed

Warning: Spoilers
Ben (Oded Fehr) is in prison for murdering his wife and daughter, but his lawyer Wendy Coulson (Alexandra Gilbreath) is convinced that demonic possession is the cause. So how do you prove that in court? Steven, whose cursed object may have made Ben a killer, has created an apartment filled with multiple objects with the same demonic hold and rents it out to Carly (Alana Wallace), Maria (Aislinn De'Ath) and her daughters Joey (Anya Newall) and Lilly (Lara Mount). Now, that family's demons are about to meet very real ones.

Adam Ethan Crow has some interesting ideas in here and it feels like this inhabits the same world as The Conjuring films while having a more progressive family at its center. While Steven and Ben have been faking ghost incidents for years, the air bob filled with occult objects actually begins to show them what the unknown really is.

Steven is as repellant a character as you'll find, his plan is one made to unravel and woe be to the normal family caught within. If you enjoy possession and paranormal films, you'll definitely enjoy this one, however.
