"The Vigil" -- Keith Thomas' atmospherically chilling, jump-scarey horror tale "The Vigil" eventually arrives at a narrative crossroads where it can go one of two ways: It can springboard off its masterly crafted, frightfully dark opening and do for Judaism what "The Exorcist" did for Catholicism. Or it can merely continue its easy jump-scares, weird noises and nerve-jangling music while inching toward a slightly confusing, pedestrian finale that will not likely inspire believers to flock to the safety of their houses of worship, as happened with "The Exorcist." "The Vigil" opts for the latter as it presents a supernatural tale "steeped in ancient Jewish lore and demonology," according to a press release.
