Banshee Chapter
Footage of President Bill Clinton in the first few minutes of the film is not related to an official apology by the US Government for MK ULTRA experiments, rather for a similar project: The Tuskegee Experiments. The Tuskegee syphilis experiment was an infamous clinical study conducted between 1932 and 1972 by the U.S. Public Health Service to study the natural progression of untreated syphilis in rural African-American men in Alabama. The experiment's subjects were told that they were receiving free health care from the U.S. government.,Thomas Blackburn: People are afraid of death just because death is so fucking ordinary.

Courtesy of Expressive Artists LLC,The Banshee Chapter is a decent horror flick with a lot of potential that unfortunately fails to deliver on most counts. The film starts really well, but sadly doesn't manage to keep up with its early promise. It does have a few genuinely nail biting moments in it however, which make it well worth a watch. I would recommend approaching this film in the knowledge that it is a highly flawed yet enjoyable hour and a half, so that you aren't disappointed and can enjoy the film for what it is; A relatively well- made chiller with some very good ideas, executed clumsily. I feel that with a tightening of the plot and a better lead actress, there could have been a really excellent film here. Still, The Banshee Chapter is much better than the majority of horror films out there, and definitely worth viewing at least once if you're in the mood for a fright.,
