This was not for me. The horror aspect here more creeps in brief glimpses than in full scenes and it takes nearly forever to get to them. Nothing is clearly explained at the end of the film. All the foreshadowing its sets up for an audience falls completely flat. Looking past its lackluster ending, I do appreciate how the movie did keep me on the edge of my seat towards the climax. I would gladly take my hours back from this, though.
Um…. wow
good J horror!
Painfully great movie!
Pretty good. It was hard to tell what was going on sometimes, but I assume it was partly psychological, as well as the serial killer.
