Dad dead. Mom a basket case. Boy is withdrawn. Furniture moves. Dishes break as well as other low budget effects. Plot drags along with a "twist" that is expected. Film was tiresome. Lara Lemon only thing worth watching.Guide: F-word, sex. No nudity.

DEADLY INTENT is another non-event of a ghost story, made on an indie budget and with absolutely nothing to recommend it. It's a small-scale domestic drama made in Britain and exploring the subject of grief, as a soldier's death abroad leads a mother and her child into a downward spiral. When mysterious events start to surround the boy, the mother begins to suspect that the husband's ghost is the root cause. Very little happens here and the novice cast members simply aren't up to the job of convincingly delivering their dialogue. The end result? Nothing more than a boring mess of a movie.

DEADLY INTENT is a really fun and mysterious ride! As some other reviewers wrote, Deadly Intent is seriously scary. Whether it's paranormal activity at home or losing a family member, it ratchets up the tension at every turn making this a great indie psychological thriller that veers into paranormal horror seamlessly. The story sets itself up and just when you think you know where it's going, it keeps you guessing and engaged. Additionally, this film feels like a big-budget film, technically flawless, with exceptional performances, Deadly Intent delivers the goods! Cheers!

My quick rating - 2,6/10. I am on a roll today. Another boring movie, this time with a ghost of a father killed during wartime coming back to reclaim his son. Stuff falls off shelves, toys move around, things go missing....seems like what happens in everyones house, really. This big huge ordeal (read the IMDb plot, makes it sound like it is) is just there. Since the ghost is evil, I guess the entity is a better word. But in the end, this is just dumb. Bonus point for the scene where the mother tries to use a makeshift ouija board out of a household glass and the words yes and no written on paper. They should've used cgi for that to make this movie more ridiculous. The bad part is, I bet the film makers actually were trying to be serious about this film. I am serious when I say, don't waste your time unless you are related to someone involved in it.
