Are you planning to see ‘The Possession’ this weekend?

Here are a few reviews of The Possession which comes out in theaters this weekend. The film tells the story of a girl who brings home a box with Hebrew markings and hidden locks from a yard sale, opens it, starts wearing its contents, and people near her start dying. It's loosely based on a true story.

This is McClatchy Newspapers' take.

Rotten Tomatoes says no consensus yet.

The Chicago Tribune asks "What possessed them to make Posession?"

Are you planning on seeing "The Possession"? What makes religious thrillers appealing?
