The wolf lawyer Bill McCormick (Val Kilmer) and his estranged wife Brooklyn (Bonnie Somerville); the brothers Issac (Luke Goss) and Adam (Matt Barr); and Dr. Lipski (Christian Baha) are returning from a resort in a van. They stop in a gas station where Adam and Bill woo the attendant Courtney (Rebecca Da Costa) and when they return to the road, the driver sees a mysterious woman on the road and crashes the van on a tree.
The driver dies and the group of strangers is helped by Jack (Ving Rhames) that invites them to go to his house since a storm is coming. Adam meets Courtney with her broken car on the road and she joins the group. Soon they find that they are trapped in the house that is inhabited by ghosts. Further they learn that one hundred years ago a family was slaughtered by their insane son and they can see the boy killing his family again and again.
"Seven Below" is a senseless and lame ghost story and one of the worst horror movies that I have ever seen. The plot is an awful rip-off of the storyline of Claude Chabrol's "Alice ou la Dernière Fugue", with a car crash on a tree and the character trapped in a house.
Ghost stories are usually attractive, but unfortunately "Seven Below" does not make any sense. The characters are poorly developed and Val Kilmer and Ving Rhames are absolutely decadent in their careers. My vote is two.
Title (Brazil): "Sete Almas" ("Seven Souls")
