When it was all said and done, between the evening of August 6th and the morning of August 7th, thirty-eight people – homeless and random bystanders alike – were injured in altercations with the NYPD and no police     ...

And with good reason, as it’s a pretty spooky picture ripe with the type of atmosphere and intensity that’s lacking in so many modern CGI-laden cinematic tales of the supernatural.
