I surprisingly liked Whisper. The story is not very original, but it’s interesting nonetheless; it keeps the tension until the end, the performances are more than decent for the standards of “unambitious horror”, little David is demonic enough, though he speaks and explains a bit too much at times… The reveal 20 minutes before the end was something I didn’t expect, which also counts. The entire film is permeated by a mysterious atmosphere, I didn’t notice any major weak spots; basically well above-par and a pleasant surprise.

Honestly, Whisper did not work for me at all when it comes to the essential factor that makes a good horror movie, which is the atmosphere. The film basically just recycles clichés from successful and trashy horror movies, and it doesn't deny its low-budget nature. I can only laugh at the comparison to the legendary film The Omen, and even the very average and widely condemned Ghost Ship felt at least a level better to me, and I don't consider that film a genre gem. I gave it 3 stars, and I don't feel like giving the same rating to Whisper because even the presence of popular stars from recent cult TV projects doesn't work for me. Overall impression: 25%. Die-hard horror fans can add 2 stars.
