SAINT ANGE [2004]

Writer/director Pascal Laugier's Saint Ange (House Of Voices) is a spooky ghost story riddled with cliches and paint-by-numbers characters.  
It manages to pack in enough effective scares and a noteworthy performance from Lou Doillon to help drag the viewer to the baffling finale but that's about it.  Sloppy, boring storytelling that doesn't even try to do anything different from the rest of the ghost stories out there.
