After the mysterious disappearance of their mother, estranged brothers reunite and discover an unknown supernatural force.
_Awaken the Shadowman_ must be about the 47th movie I've watched recently where the villain's super power seems to be "having long fingers". It takes more than a couple of queues from _Supernatural_, and like _Supernatural_, it seems the people behind _Awaken the Shadowman_ have something long-running in mind for the future. Unlike Supernatural though, that ain't gonna happen.
_Final rating:★½: - Boring/disappointing. Avoid where possible._
