Review – Driftwood

This is ostensibly a ghost story, and in fairness I must admit that it does feature a few brief appearances by a ghost. However, for the most part it’s a boring story about a misunderstood youth (Raviv Ullman) sent to a “tough love” institution managed by a cruel jerk (Diamond Dallas Page, whom I’m guessing was a pro wrestler sometime in the past). He gets in scuffles with the other kids. He sasses the guards. They brutalize him. Around midway through the “mystery” of the haunting is explained, and the rest of the picture is nothing but okay-is-it-going-to-end-now. Eventually of course it does conclude, predictably enough in an orgy of vengeance-intensive caterwauling. See if desperate
