My Review-
This movie is very disturbing more so then the remake that I saw a few years ago. This movie was the real deal, it was really scary at times and had its Holy shit moments, then it was slow then holy shit again, topped off by a really creepy family. It is possibly one of the more disturbing horror films I have seen aside from Audition that was just playing fucking creepy and disturbing almost like this one. However this one was more disturbing. The way the movie was shot made it as disturbing as it was. also It did not have you invest to much in to the characters seeing is how they would all eventually meet their end, what got me to watch this movie was Bravo's most horrifying movie moments. Eventually I got around to finally watching it today, and I am kind of glad that I put it off until now, so that I would be able to review it for this. This is one movie I do not think I would like to watch again, and if you are easily freaked out or do not like horror movies do not watch this, and if you love horror films then give this another watch. Even though I do like the occasional horror film, this was a little to much for me. Even though I did enjoy a lot I will not give this movie another watch, maybe in the near future but I would have to think about it.
