“The Disappointments Room” (*1/2 out of four) was a disappointing horror thriller about a mother (Kate Beckinsale) and her young son (Duncan Joiner) who move into a remote house in the countryside where (yawn) horrors from the attic are unleashed and begin to wreak havoc. Beckinsale is really a sight to see in rare blond hair but aside from that originality, this is strictly routine and by-the-numbers and is deficient in scares or thrills. Stanley Kubrick is probably turning over in his grave by now with the amount of times “The Shining” has been ripped off.
