 It’s unfortunate for the talented Zellweger, forced against her will to deal with a little demon but, above all, forced to act in a 'film' that is the result of the absolute lack of creativity into which American horror has sunk.

Case 39 falls victim to a stale horror trend featuring demonic children, failing to deliver originality or impactful scares. While the first half-hour shows promise, the film quickly deteriorates into unengaging and uninspired territory. Despite Renee Zellweger's talent, the film lacks creativity and gore intensity, making it a forgettable entry in recent American horror cinema. Read the full review and decide if Case 39 is worth your horror pick or a redundant trope to skip.
