This film wasn’t what I expected it to be at all. I’m actually glad that it was slower-paced; I think that approach made the film feel more creepy than at first glance. I actually did get chills when I walked out of the theater. Not only that, I thought the script was well-written and the story was entertaining. It’s a good film, I enjoyed this very much.

Any chance of this movie to be released in Blu-Ray? Please, pretty please?

I do like the film and with this kind of style, it really delievers the tone of the film which is creepyness. I do like the storyline how it falls into play. I thought it will be more like a ghost story as well, but in the middle was a shocker. But at the end, as you get into Alice’s character, I like the fact of seeing a ghost from the future or her soul hints about the future. I thought that was pretty cool and something more different, than just an average ghost or demon. Beginning is kinda boring, but as you watch more of, the more interseting it really gets.

I absolutely loved this movie. It was better than I expected it to be. Slow creepiness then release and further build-up. Documentary style lead to a more convincing movie. 100x better than some other movies done with the same style.
