When Eli levitated the doctor and nurses, hung them upside down, then set them on fire.

The fact that Eli is a demon but sucks so hard at magic tricks.

Remember when Eli had no reaction to being sliced open with a scalpel?.

Those trailer guys who made fun of Eli and his hazmat suit.

Still, it’s ~spooky szn~ and the jump scares mostly worked on me, so I’ll give this one a thumbs medium. His biggest moment of “evil” was when he gave those rednecks from the beginning the finger and said he wished he could beat them up. To be honest, the “twist ending” was far from fulfilling because there wasn’t enough foreshadowing or hints that this kid would turn out to be the Omen. Now, they’re going to take a family road trip to find him. Turns out, she’s not a neighbor from next door (more lies) but Eli’s half-sister from another mister.Satan. So, demon Eli and his mom peace TF out and Eli sets the house on fire.

WTF? The cure she was looking for was for evil, because the devil promised Eli wouldn’t turn out like him. Yes, every single patient has died during the third treatment, but when Eli freaks out and tries to explain that to his parents, they lock him in an actual crypt! I thought this kid was supposed to be allergic to dust?īut if you think his mom was innocent in all this because she had no idea the third treatment was going to kill her son-you’re wrong! She knew he was a demon because she slept with the actual devil to have a child. So, at this point, who do you think is lying? Trick question: It’s everyone.except Eli. He sneaks out of his room to check it out. 371 is the code to a locked file room in the makeshift OR. Instead, upside down, it looks like they say “371.” Obviously, like all perfectly normal kids, he jumps to the exact right conclusion about the numbers on his first try. From his bed, he noticed that the carvings might not say “LIE” at all. TG this kid is smart and hides it under his tongue like a pro. Guess what number treatment Eli is on? You’re right!Įli’s not trying to die, so he causes all sorts of chaos until his mom makes him take a mysterious sleeping pill. From her, we find out that at least one patient named Perry has died from this set of treatments-the third surgery, to be exact. Maybe it’s Mad Max from Stranger Things (Sadie Sink), who just hangs outside of the manor at all hours and talks to Eli through a window. In case I haven’t stressed this enough, someone is LYING.

These ghosts are also trying to tell him something, because when he draws his name, “ELI,” into the fog on his window, they switch the letters around to say “LIE.” Later, they carve it over and over into a wooden closet. I’m not going to get too into the nitty-gritty for the rest of this post-I know you’re very busy-but basically, everyone involved should lose their medical licenses.Īlmost immediately, Eli is haunted by ghosts and/or demons (the creepy contortionist kind that give me the heebie-jeebies), but his parents and doctor swear it’s a side effect of his medication.

Apparently, it’s some kind of immune deficiency? I don’t know why you’d have to cut into the brain for that.Clearly, something is off.

They cut him open and do all kinds of things without anesthesia, and it’s very unclear what his illness actually is. Anyway, they show up at this creepy-ass mansion that’s supposedly a “clean house,” where he’ll undergo experimental treatment by a doctor (Lili Taylor) and a couple of nurses who are very suspicious.
