A very strange film that has a great exposition and build-up, and ultimately goes nowhere. The first third or so, up until the girls go missing, is very spooky and well put together, and it sets a definite mood. But then the film goes off the rails, going through so many pointless sub-plots that make no sense and have no connection to the central theme. If the film had continued along the path that the beginning set down, it would have been a very weird, mysterious, and well-done movies, but, instead, it's quite disappointing.
