I rented this by mistake thinking it was the Japanese version so was not expecting a lot. FWIW I love good horror movies and have found the wave of J-horror movies to actually deliver the frights I look for.
Within minutes I was covered in goose-bumps that barely left through the movie. Hiding behind my hands and the cushions and the wife.... Now you'll know (or think you know) what really goes bump in the night and know that hiding under the covers isn't as safe as you would like to think......
Many great jump scenes to be sure (what's making that noise in the attic-I'll go by myself and have a look) but also scenes that just build and build to a shuddering conclusion, the security camera being unforgettably creepy. Images that just burn into your mind and hang around in the dark for weeks. Sure it probably has flaws but the end result is much much more than I expected.
Almost a week later and this movie still springs to mind whenever the lights go out and I try to sleep. Darn it!!!
