    This is quite a good horror film that does borrow a lot from other films like Bloody Mary, Cabin Fever and a few others. It's a little slow to start and it won't please gore fans, but it was much better than I expected it to be.

    I have no idea why I like this movie. It is predictable, somewhat lame, but I do enjoy a horror film with a lot of blood even if it has a stupid plot.

    Very impressive indeed. The beginning starts off with no dialog and yet still tells us about a lot of stuff through the visuals. The cinematography is fantastic, desaturated and highly professional it puts most horror films to shame. Great directing keeps the build up almost pain...( read more)fully slow but always tense. The decision to make these characters young adults as opposed to regular teen fuckheads also made time for real relationships and real reactions to what was going on. Finally the acting was brilliant, very believable and for all it's hard effort this should have gotten a main cinematic release and been much more successful. Being more of a psychological drama and character study than an all out horror results in the final act stumbling a bit as the monster/witch/demon/infection begins to take center stage.

    It was alright...kinda creepy at times, but it's not one I'd want to watch again.

    Can we say Evil Dead rip off meets Candyman? Even so, not the worst thing that I have even seen this week lol. The plot summary here is wrong... it is late 20-something friends since high school, not teenagers involved. The story focuses on who is "one of them" so who can you tru...( read more)st type plot that has been in many movies before but without the in-cheek gusto of some of it's predecessors. Overall for a low budget horror flick, it's not that awful but does take FOREVER to get to any of the horror.

    A bit boring and couldn't see parts of the film as it was too dark.

    I know this movie didn't get the greatest reviews but I actually thought it was pretty good. I did miss about the first 20 minutes so maybe that affects my judgement a little but I enjoyed it overall. It was kind of similar to a modern version of 'Evil Dead'. I'm glad they decide...( read more)d to avoid CGI effects and focus more on makeup gore because it just adds alot to a film in my opinion. I thought the actors (for a bunch of people I've never heard of before) did a good job at being creepy. The film wasn't over hollywoodized with stars but there was still a little too much relationship drama given the age of the characters. I do think they could have done alot more with the subject they were given and the ending wasn't very conclusive of anything. But if you really think about the predicament the characters were facing- the idea of being forced to make a choice to kill your friends or loved ones when you weren't sure they were possessed or completely normal- it would be a hard decision for anyone to make and this film will really get you thinking.

    Not a bad horror at all. It was fun to watch.
  • November 24, 2008
    I was really enjoying this up until the end. What the heck?!?!?! They failed to explain anything....and left huge holes in the plot. You watch the credits thinking there's gotta be something more after this....come on! This had potential for one more star until they pulled tha...( read more)t crap.
