From Within

**_The wages of sin is..._** **Death.** That blurb makes perfect sense once you see the film. "From Within" (2008) tells the story of a Maryland town plagued by a series of apparent suicides. Those from the town's prominent church attribute the problem to witchcraft and zero-in on the Wiccan son of a witch who literally burned to death several years earlier (written off as an accident). A Christian girl, Lindsay, takes compassion on the Wiccan dude, Aiden, and tries to understand him and what's really going on. Meanwhile people keep dying. Is this somehow retribution by the Wiccans? A small group of the Christians pull out the guns, led by Dylan, the pastor's son and Lindsay's boyfriend. If you're interested in seeing a typical slasher flick, "From Within" probably won't appeal
