PLOT SYNOPSIS |
Camille Meadows (SUKI WATERHOUSE) is the new girl at the prestigious Edelvine Academy for Girls, after the apparent suicide of student. Soon after her arrival, while serving detention together following an altercation, Camille and six other girls gather for a late-night ritual, calling forth the spirit of a dead former student who reportedly haunts their halls. But before morning, one of the girls is dead, leaving the others wondering what they may have awakened. |
SPECIAL FEATURES – 3/5 |

VIDEO – 4¼/5, AUDIO – 4/5 |
Séance summons the dead onto Blu-ray through RLJ Films, presented with a 2.39 widescreen aspect ratio and given a 1080p high-definition transfer. For the most part the picture here looks pretty good, detail is decent enough while colors are on the darker side as a fair portion takes place either at night or in darkened rooms. Textures aren’t the best but still it’s a fine transfer, just a tad below average when comparing to other newer films. The disc comes with a DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1 track which I found to be perfectly serviceable. Dialogue comes across with good clarity and there is some modest depth here and there. Nothing spectacular nor will it give your surround system much of a workout, but still sounds decent enough. |
