Lost Souls stars industry veteran John Savage and tells the story of a family who move into a new home and experience unusual events. Among them is a young autistic girl who seems to be at the centre of it all.Truth is I'm pretty sure I've seen this very same plot before, it certainly isn't even remotely original but thanks to strong performances and a competent director it has an identity of its own.Though it doesn't all flow together flawlessly it's a harmless little tale but I'd never say it falls under the horror umbrella. I'd call it a supernatural thriller.Sadly among it's flaws are a few red herrings and unexplained moments/characters that really should have been padded out. Without being the film feels a tad incomplete.Regardless Lost Souls is a just about passable effort even if you'll see the twist coming by no later than half way through the film.The Good:Well madeJohn SavageThe Bad:Twist is a tad predictibleToo many unanswered questionsThings I Learnt From This Movie:I suddenly want a train set!

The Robinson family - him her, and not quite 2.4 children - move to a big house in a rural area for a specific purpose. Their daughter is autistic, and they want her to attend a special school. Eight years previously a boy and a girl had been murdered in either a single transaction or close to it. A local man had been convicted of the crime on his own confession. He had also confessed to many more murders.This is not quite an open and shut case because with the help of Thomas Edison no less, the victims appear to be communicating with the daughter. Appear to be? There is some quite obvious haunting early on which is witnessed by more than one person, so the viewer is left in no doubt that it is for real. Unfortunately, apart from a couple of fairly obvious red herrings, that is as good as this one gets.

This is a drama about a family discovering a child murder is living near by, and his 2 victims, young children are communicating with a young autistic girl via ancient Edison invention.Its so sad how those two kids got stuffed in bags and buried.I saw this movie once on Fox Family's "13 days of Halloween." Overall, I thought it was a really great movie. I voted it for a 10 out 10. It is one of my favorite movies. And I recommend anyone who likes mystery and horror films watch this great movie. Please Enjoy the film on Youtube also.--Samuel

Right from the start, this is a gripping horror. You know there's someone out there, watching...Some of the scenes reminded me of Poltergeist - inexplicable happenings, strange voices, dramatic music and the like. Very creepy throughout and full of suspense.My only criticism is that the ending is slightly O.T.T., but it's a good watch all the same.
