Wasted Potential

This is almost impossible to review without spoilers so beware. Some minor DEI with the Asian female character who's acting is not very good at all. The black owner I wouldn't really call a DEI hire as his acting is good and he pulls the character off very well. This resorts to some cheap jump scares though there are some genuinely creepy moments. Bad writing however ruins any potential this had. Who wanders over to pool with a sinkhole alone in the middle of the night and leans out
over a loose handrail?



Spoilers!!!--




This is not a haunted house movie. Once the twist happens the writing really takes a hit. If she is so dangerous as soon as the Doc spotted her why would you not call the police instantly instead of calling two hospital orderlies and then going into a closed room alone with her. This woman who looks like she weighs 90lbs at best manages to overpower and kill two large male orderlies at the same time. The ending really makes no sense. How is she running the place now? Nobody came looking for all those missing people, including the owner of the INN? Where did all the money come from for the INN renovations? A lot of early potential is completely wasted by the end.
