jennifer shadow be set in argentina and start a jennifer cassi ( gina philip ) arrive there after her sister johanna die . jennifer be leave johanna large house in her will and jennifer decides to sell the house and head back to los angeles even though her grandmother mary ellen ( faye dunaway ) be oppose to the sale . however strange thing begin to happen and jennifer start have nightmare about raven peck at her and she start to feel very ill. after a check up in hospital it seem that one of her kidney have mysteriously disappear and what be happen to jennifer . be it an ancient family curse . will jennifer be the next to succumb to it . this argentinian american co production be co write and co direct by daniel de la vega and pablo parés and be a really dull waste of ninety odd minute and a tedious and predictable modern ghost story that i would imagine will put more people to sleep sooner than scare them . the script by vega and parés and p. j. pettiette be pretty slow go and tedious which be not what anyone want and i mean i be sure most people do not want to sit down and be bore out of their skull . the character be all uninteresting and fairly faceless with little or no motivation for anything they do . for instance who be that graveyard caretaker guy . how do he know about the demon . what be his interest and motivation for get involve . i couldn not see it . jennifer herself be a pretty unlikable and bland lead lady and her grandmother mary allen be as clichéd a they come and it surprise that she be so obviously the villain . i mean for this sort of mystery base horror or ghost story it surprisingly predictable and routine . there be gap in both logic and the story which together with the terrible twist end which isn not much of a twist i do not like jennifer shadow one iota . director vega and parés go down the much use route of bleach almost all of the colour from the picture which often render it not too far from black and white and i suspect that they want to give it a period gothic feel but it be do so many time before and often so much good that it do not do much for me at all and just make the whole film look dull and lifeless . there a definite 40 period look a well and from the costume to the interior of the large house but again it rather half hearted and cheap look . jennifer shadow be well make but it rather forgettable and it not scary or creepy and it rather predictable . if that wasn not enough there no gore either and there a few scene of raven peck away at people and a beating heart but nothing else . with a supposed budget of about $ 1 and 000 and 000 and retitled to the chronicle of the raven for it u and international dvd release this be reasonably well make but a million would not buy you too much these day and jennifer shadow pretty much prof that theory . there be too many scene of actor speaking in thick argentinian accent a well and even though it might be realistic i actually like to be able to understand what people be say . the acting be alright although dunaway overacts badly and be obviously there for the money . jennifer shadow be a rubbishy ghost film that i think be a total bore from start to finish and i would rather watch the incredibly strange creature who stop live and become mixed up zombie . ( 1964 ) again instead . a total waste of time .
