Title: The Haunting in Connecticut
Director: Peter Cornwell
Stars: Virginia Madsen, Martin Donovan, Elias Koteas
Studio: Lionsgate

The Plot: For reasons related to their son’s health, Peter and Sara Campbell (Donovan and Madsen) relocate their family to Northern Connecticut. As they settle into their new Victorian home, however, they come face to face with their abode’s unsettling history and the supernatural forces who share the space.

THE BUZZ: This thriller rides into the spring season with a green director and screenwriting team who have successfully ducked having to defend their project’s blatant similarities to The Amityville Horror. I’m more perturbed by the reveal-all trailer which was released last fall and quickly went stale. Still, you couldn’t ask for a better-value cast, with Elias Koteas playing a priest, no less (just like another HBO vet, Idris Elba who played it Fatherly in David Goyer’s The Unborn). And who’s that haunted kid with cancer? The Beaver from “Veronica Mars” … so things could be worse.
