Reminding me of real nightmares

Rating: 8/10 (27 January 2008)

This film is a good thrill ride. It builds up fear and tension very well without using too much blood. I like the way it slowly makes us scared of this room by let us hear the story about it first. I also like the way it creates a world of nightmare where anything can happen and then disappears and then changes into something else. It's like getting locked in Hell and you can never escape even when you thought you already have.
I have had nightmares before and I must say that this film present something very, very similar to them. A world where you can never escape and the horrible thing in them came from the depth of darkness in your heart.
However, the film drags a bit in the second half. Too many things happen at the same and without a break. Also,the story doesn't really give any significant message. If it has a theme, then it fails to deliver that theme, because I didn't learn anything. It was just a good scary movie that tells you how things in your head can haunt you like hell. I didn't like the ending. It was a bit confusing what the movie tries to say at the last scene.
Overall, I recommend this one for anybody who enjoy psycho-horror films. I wasn't disappointed. This movie kept my heart beating and my eyes staring at the screen the whole way through.
