  • Pretty good.

    Rated - 4.0 stars

    [Highly rated reviewer]

    I found this movie alot of fun to watch, i was expecting it to be a bit scary, but it wasn't scary at all. It wasn't as i expected but it was still a very very good storyline and great movie. i'd watch it again.

    The acting from Kate Hudson and John Hurt is pretty good in this, and the story isn't too predictable, quite a few twists. Not terribly scary at all but still quite a good watch

  • entertaining,well acted horror film.

    Rated - 4.0 stars  
    By a customer , 25 Jun 2012
    a really enjoyable horror film, keeps you entertained the whole way through. i would definitely recommend this to anyone as its not that scary and is more of a thriller with a shocking twist at the end.

    it makes a change to see a well acted and clever horror film for once and its one that has always stuck in mind since the first time i seen it.

    watch it!!

    found this film really good, creeping and weird, and full of horror kinda thriller stuff.

    weird ending too, but still good.

    give it a go

  • Deep Southern Fried Horror at its best.

    Rated - 5.0 stars

    Im not an enormous fan of Kate Hudson because i think if Goldie Hawn hadnt been her Mother she would have been bagging groceries in K Mart. However, having said that she is SUPERB in this Movie. She manages to play the strong heroine role and doesnt put a foot wrong.

    The screenplay is SUPERB, the artistic direction is SUPERB and for fans of gothic horror it is a must see.

    The ending will shock you to your core.
