A senseless movie that offends hard-core horror fans.

When a cop who is just out of rehab takes the graveyard shift in a city hospital morgue, she faces a series of bizarre, violent events caused by an evil entity in one of the corpse.

Half done, repetitive and motionless, this movie is one big failure that, unfortunately, should not have seen the light.

Before i start talking about the many flaws of this movie, i have to say that i love how they showcased evil and how it haunt us even after we're long gone. How it creeps down on someone and lingers and just sucks the life out of you until you become a lifeless vessel that demons find amusing and take shelter in.

But to my dismay, the possession of hannah grace was not worthy of its genre's title. First of all, the story was extremely forgettable. Nothing new was presented, we've seen it a 1000 times before. In addition, it was inconsistent and predictable, you can guess the outcome from the first 10 minutes.

To add, this film was trying so hard to live up to its name so director Diederik Van Rooijen, tried to assemble all the cliché horror elements in just 87 minutes. But it totally backfired and we ended up with an overstuffed movie with zero attracting elements  Except the protagonist Shay Mitchell. She delivered an okay performance but her character was seriously underdeveloped and unattractive.

At the end of the day, the possession of hannah grace is an underwhelming movie with an even more underwhelming story.

Not recommended.
