    Low budget horror that makes the most of its limitations; it delivers the requisite shocks with a black, comic touch.

    You Have to watch this--READ ON

    I loved this film.

    It's not tacky and yes the dialogue is hilarious and the whole film is shot tastfully.

    I jumped 3x and I love horror and with films like 'Cabin fever' & 'Wrong turn' this is So much better and has exceeded my expectations.

    I must admit I was halfway through watching this thinking'what is this' I was also scared it was going to be one of those stupid endings but you will be nicely suprised as it all fits together and ties everything together.

    Well worth a watch its fun and not too gory but in parts is really scary and spooky.Trust me what have you got to LOSE!

    Well this has got to be the film of the year, it was fantastic, although my husband got what was going on 15 mins into the film, it didnt spoil it.

    I thought the acting was brill, there are a lot of scary moments too as well has funny ones, in fact we giggled all the way through it, but once again it didnt take anything away from the concept of the film, magic all the way, a must see for any horror film buff.
