電影《魔靈》由 David Charbonier 以及 Justin Powell 團(tuán)隊(duì)執(zhí)導(dǎo)， 主演：Ezra Dewey 、Rob Brownstein。影片講述沉默男孩 Dylan 與其父共同生活的故事。是夜，老爸外出打工、Dylan 獨(dú)自在家；熊孩子當(dāng)夜召喚一個(gè)名為 Djinn的邪惡精靈，Dylan想讓魔靈賦予他言語(yǔ)的能，可惜魔靈食言了。。。。。魔靈提出條件：小朋友需要存活1小時(shí)，這樣后者才能實(shí)現(xiàn)愿望；否則魔靈將取走小朋友的靈魂。 Ezra Dewey 在影片《魔靈》的出演可圈可點(diǎn)，小朋友不能言語(yǔ)，所以他只能用肢體和表情演繹。。。他成功啦！

Complimenting the directorial skills of Charbonier and Powell is the young Dewey, whose silent performance is immensely impressive. Any potential for poor taste in having a mute young boy menaced in a horror movie is soon dispensed as it becomes clear just how smart and resourceful Dylan is. Like Home Alone and its French forerunner 3615 Code Père No?l, The Djinn sees its home invader up against a formidable young foe. But make no mistake, this is no comedy, and despite its precocious protagonist it's no kids movie either. The Djinn plays its horrors with a straight face, and with the subplot of Dylan's mother's death it has a heavy dose of heartbreaking pathos. In this age of helicopter parenting and molly-coddled kids, it's refreshing to see a movie that dares to inflict horrors - of both our own world and other dimensions - on a child without coming across as mean-spirited.

The Djinn has an excellent lead character who carries the story almost entirely on the shoulders of his great performance. It features an awesome synth score that’ll catch your attention even if film scores aren’t usually your thing, and it has nonstop thrills and chills without an ounce of fat on its lean, eighty-two-minute runtime.
