The Innkeepers (2011)

  This is one of those cases where the poster is better than the movie.  

On its last open weekend, two employees of the turn-of-the-century Yankee Pedlar Inn try to make contact with the resident ghost.  This works out about as well as it usually does.

I'm just so disappointed.  Haunted hotel movies are a dime-a-dozen and it doesn't take a lot to clear the bar, but this movie just kept tripping over itself.  No effort on backstory, telling instead of showing, jump scares, and what was up with the cutesy title cards?  What a waste.

It's currently streaming on Tubi with ad breaks but is absolutely not worth watching.
