In 1974, single mother Doris Bither reported being violently assaulted by an unseen force inside her Culver City home. As the attacks escalated, investigators from UCLA documented a series of terrifying events that would become one of the most infamous paranormal cases in American history. Based on the true story that inspired The Entity, WHAT HAPPENED TO DORIS? tells the story through the eyes of the family who lived it. Starring Heather Graham, WHAT HAPPENED TO DORIS? is a harrowing supernatural horror film about an unimaginable haunting--and the devastating cost of refusing to believe its victim.

3/5

An interesting and often untold true life story rests at the centre of this overly familiar and a tad too formulaic reconstruction.

Some of the most interesting work in WHAT HAPPENED TO DORIS? happens behind the camera, particularly with editor Christine Armstrong and the film’s sound team...Armstrong’s editing and the meticulous sound work make the unseen impossible to ignore.

There are flashes of something genuinely unsettling here, and Graham gives the film a bruised, human center.
