Seriously, what's wrong with you? this movie is so underrated, it has OK acting, Lovely music... and a plot which at some point certainly makes you wonder what just happened, BUT.. it's NECESSARY in order to accomplish the movie's goal, some of you need to understand that inside the genre of horror it doesn't always take a blood bath or a faceless and brainless killer who strangely teleports all around cutting everyone's head off and has more lives than a cat to actually be scared, that formula just DOESN'T work anymore with some of us.

Before you watch a movie, you have to know what's coming, I mean, if you're going to watch like a Fantasy film, you cannot therefore be like.. 'Wtf?! that's not real, I'm wasting my time.. that's so out of reality!' This isn't the type of horror where you can expect massive murder or an specific situation that says 'HERE'S WHERE YOU ARE SUPPOSED TO BE SCARED' Nope, this is a psychological thrill where you take an important roll on developing the characters and the stuff that takes place, since certain situations can vary a lot depending on how the viewer analyzes it.. and that goes right from the start to the very ending on this movie.

So, to sum up I gave this film a 10 because it's extremely under rated and it needs to go up a little, I wouldn't say it's a master piece either, but it would pretty much deserve at least a 7.

Another movies you could like if this one was OK to you? Might want to have a look to Silent hill, Jacob's ladder, The others.
