'Winchester' will remind you of superior films 'The Conjuring', 'The Exorcist', 'The Sixth Sense', and most notably 'The Haunting'. And it does so by blatantly rehashing these themes without the same control, pace, tension, formidable characters, and overarching craft. In doing so it drudges the message of the right to bear arms, but really audiences should have the right to a horror film that is not bare of originality.
