A young woman unwittingly unleashes an evil spirit in her house.  Starring: Debbi Jones, Brett DeJager, Joie Bauer, and Shirley Hoesing Directed by: Carlos Omar De Leon Written by: Vorasine Vince Phrommany and Carlos Omar De Leon   After bringing horror fans “ Killer Date ” and “ Kal - The Clown ,” Carlos Omar De Leon is back with a new film, “Invoke.” It’s getting late, and a young woman (Debbi Jones) is tired of working on her research as her boyfriend (Brett DeJager) watches a movie. She sends him home and prepares for bed, but not before listening to an audio file she receives from her cousin. The audio tells the story of Eliza Braum, a murderer who vowed to return one day!    Too bad for the young woman because that day has come.

They also do an equally good job getting the audience to feel bad for Emmett after the story he tells. What’s really great about that scene is just as the audi

Shortly after delivering a patient to an understaffed hospital, a police officer experiences strange and violent occurrences seemingly linked to a group of mysterious hooded figures. Starring: Ellen Wong, Kathleen Munroe, and Kenneth Welsh Directed and written by: Jeremy Gillespie and Steven Kostanski   Watching the trailer to a movie can make you want to see it, or pass on it. It can also make you so curious about something that you need to know what’s happening. There’s a lot going on in the trailer for “The Void,” but those hooded guys with the triangles where their faces should be had me hooked. Who are they, what’s with the triangles, and what are they up to?    Before the appearance of the hooded guys, the audience gets thrown right in the middle of a scene of chaos resulting in a girl getting burned alive. It then moves away from that scene and to police officer Daniel Carter (Aaron Poole). It seems like another slow night for him until a bleeding guy stumbl
