Jacob (Justin Duncan) and Shawn (Gerald Crum) are paranormal investigators ... well, not really, neither do they believe in the supernatural nor do they have more than a vague idea of it, they're just in it for the fun of it and for doing fun YouTube clips. And then they hear about a demonic doll, Anna, and they go on and steal her from a museum of the paranormal, set it up in their basement and ... nothing - which is less than even they expected, since the doll was connected to a couple of disappearances. Then though they figure out that the doll only wants women for its deviltry - so they put up an ad on craigslist and find Kat (Rebekah Lynn Bruflodt), who's in for whatever they're up to ... though she's actually a prostitute and was looking for something more sexual. Anyways, she disappears without a trace. Next, our heroes hire Satanist Jasmine (Kristin Cochell) for some assistance - but all she manages to do before disappearing is opening the door to another dimension or something, and Jacob and Shawn only make it out of there because they promise the doll to regularly sacrifice women to it from now on - but that's of course easier said than done ...

 

Anna is a movie that's very easy to be of two minds of: On one hand, the bumbling leads are really likeable and mostly funny, and the situations they get in oftentimes hilarious. On the other hand, once all hell breaks loose, the film actually loses momentum, drags on for too long and is often cryptic in its editing. Plus the humour of the leads doesn't always blend with the darker atmosphere of these scenes and derives them of full effect.

Still, the movie's not a trainwreck by far, there's really plenty to snicker about, it's just nowhere near it could have been was it more homogenous in approach and execution.
