Mama (2013)
It was pretty bad. If it weren't for the acting chops of Jessica Chastain and those two girls (incredibly talented for child actresses), I'd have even come away thinking it was downright terrible. What little goodwill it builds up with some moody sets and skillful cinematography, it immediately ruins with cheap jump scares and some atrocious writing. And that ending just left me emotionally confused. And I don't mean that in a vague, nuanced or ambiguous way, more in a "which kind of narcotics were involved in the conception of that scene?" kind of way.
