The story moves right along, and the characters are fun.
August 20, 2015
A messy hash of teen soap opera, stalker thriller and whatnot whose titular possibly-supernatural aspect is basically irrelevant.

The characters' actions remain incomprehensible, even as they're explicitly laid out.

Too dumb to be scary, too listlessly written and directed to be suspenseful and too unpleasant to work as camp ...

And as for that curse? It's on anyone who tries to endure this mess.

It's especially unforgivable when the alleged Indian curse is only a red herring to distract viewers from the more pressing gender-based violence at hand.

The Curse of Downer's Grove felt more like an extended episode of Pretty Little Liars rather than a horror film.
