I remember a few people on these boards being excited about this film...well, don't be. As Snrub fittingly put it in the trailer thread: "It's a bit shit."

That's too bad too because there could have been a lot of fun had with this premise and all the surreal stuff that could have been done. Sadly, these moments are way too rare in the film (one of the best being a dude talking to a cow...which also replies to him..). The horror moments are too few and far inbetween and never fully exploit the potential of this movie. Could have been a solid mindfuck, but in the end, it's just a sub-par wannabe-cool horror flick. The only interesting/somewhat original thing about it is the twist at the end which is really not quite what you'd probably expect. At least I didn't. But the final good two minutes don't make up for the crappy 75 minutes preceding them.

I rented this because customers kept telling me it was actually good, and it was pretty good. I got a little bored during the time they went to the house, but other than that I enjoyed it. It was well-filmed.

7/10 (B-)

Yeah, I thought it was horrible; couldn't wait for it to end.
