Mercifully, the actual film shows only a little of this poisonous "ambition." It's mostly just a good old-fashioned ghost story, well told.
And so this horror film which builds its scares slowly, stealthily and through the peculiar quirks of its characters is sold as just another clangy, generic mainstream fright flick. They're afraid you won't show up otherwise. The trailer for "The Inkeepers" betrays a basic insecurity common in low-budget indie films nowadays: They want you to think they're as loud and hectic as their big-budget counterparts. It is also offered on some cable systems' On Demand channels and opens theatrically in a limited release February 3rd. "The Innkeepers" is streaming online through Amazon Instant and Vudu.
