Rob Lowe stars in the low budget horror film Stir of Echoes: The Homecoming. Unrelated to the original film, this spin-off follows a soldier returning from Iraq, who’s suffering from PTSD, as he begins to have visions of a burn victim and attempts to find a way to appease the vengeful spirit. The film doesn’t follow any of the rules established in the first film, and sort of does its own thing. And this is a problem, as there’s not much continuity. Also, the story and characters are wholly uninteresting; Lowe is boring as hell, and there’s no reason to care about his character. Monotonous garbage, Stir of Echoes: The Homecoming goes for cheap scares and comes up short.
