===[http://www.mpaa.org/film-ratings/ MPAA Ratings]===

* Rated: R (Violence, Profanity, Adult Content, Nudity, Sexual Situations)

===Tentacle Ratings===
A rough [[Tentacle Ratings|measure]] of how "Lovecraftian" the work is:
* S____ (One Tentacle: Debateably Lovecraftian; has almost no direct connection to Lovecraft's work)

A group of youngsters use an evil tome to re-animate some undead/demonic witches in a creepy cabin in the woods? This is basically a clone of ''[[Evil Dead (1981 franchise)]]'', with all the (barely) "Lovecraftian" serial numbers filed off....

''Note: This rating is not intended as a measure of quality, merely of how closely related to Lovecraftian "Weird" fiction the work is.''

{{spoiler|
A group of college students is hired on the cheap by greedy real estate dealer Carl Stevens to clean an isolated house. As the group -- Tyler, his girlfriend, Dana, his adopted brother, Iggy, and their friends -- begins working, a book turns up containing strange incantations. Iggy reads the spells aloud, which unleashes a murderous she-demon who has been lying in wait for almost a century.
