The life of Lincoln Taggert, a young teenager girl, who suffers from receiving bully, has been turned upside down, when she is sent to a reforming school, where she summons the dark soul of a young girl that died because of bully, who seeks revenge.
"Some Kind of Hate" succeeds at being discomfiting, and Mr. Rubinstein's role is played well, but the film, directed by Adam Egypt Mortimer, simply does not cohere.
Like so much teen-targeting modern horror, it opts for dull angsty brooding over the very sort of grim-and-gruesome sleaziness that might have made its premise interesting.
As a feature debutante, Mortimer presents a confident grasp of the genre, and Some Kind Of Hate bristles with the kind of energy that makes you sit up and take notice.
Some Kind of Hate deserves credit for yoking the slasher-movie formula to an always timely message that's particularly relevant to the age group that dominates horror movie regulars.
