If you are prepared to go beyond the usual Hollywood horror cliches for your scares, then this is the film for you. Deeply atmospheric take on the haunted house theme, this time a haunted room in a block of flats sets the mood nicely. Intelligent direction weaves in the idea of water and missing children, and the ending is a pure joy: both frightening and very moving. A film that will seep into you like the dripping of a tap in the night!
