An eight-year-old forms a bond with a sinister presence in her home that looks like her mother. Jump scares, closet dread and some bloody violence sit on top of marital strain and strong language. Fine with a parent from 15 for horror fans. Skip it for younger or sensitive kids; the child-in-peril focus hits hard.
