It's not quite as terrible as some of the one-star reviews made it out to be. The story isn't all that original but there was still a level of fun to it that could have been saved with better actors and a little more carefully placed attention on the cinematography. I hate to see it given a one star. Four seems adequate.
Not the worst you can do with independent horror but far from the best.

Meh...take it or leave it
Beyond the Veil
The film opens with a Lilith Ratchet murder as a teaser. Two girls steal a box with her shrunken head inside and sell it to Hunter Perry (Rob Jaeger ) who has bad hair and a Video Blog about the paranormal, although at the end of the film he was called "the guy on the radio." There is a backstory of a murder and a curse. It goes into a poem and a game. It combines, Mary with Lizzie Borden and "hot potato." They play the game at the fourth annual Fright Fest. It is followed by the expected killings.
The film starts out on the light side but doesn't maintain what first appears as a spoof. The acting was less than "Dee Wallace" quality. Why does a demon who pops in anywhere have to chase people on foot? Predictable script, but not horrible. Ashley Rogers, the hottest chick in the film, does not appear in the IMDB credits. Normally when that happens, it is requested by the actress who doesn't want to be associated with the production. Not a good sign.
Guide: One MF word I recall near the end. No sex or nudity. Brianna Burke tub tease.
Wow...
It's like a bad porno but without the fun part. The acing is horrible, the cinematography is done by amateurs and is very bad, the whole movie sucks.
It's clear that all the 10 rating comes from friends and families of the movie maker.
