THE APPARITION [2012]

Ashley Greene and that guy who played Bucky Barnes in Captain America are plagued by a nasty case of mold in the floorboards of their brand new house in Todd Lincoln's supernatural shitfest The Apparition.
It pretty much steals bits from every ghost story you've seen before, including Paranormal Activity, The Grudge, The Amytiville Horror and many more, then somehow strips it of anything remotely scary or interesting.  Clocking in at 82 minutes (12 minutes of that were end credits) surprised me when it felt more like an hour and forty minutes of wasted time.
