Real scary moments and great tension

Rating: 8/10 (7 March 2001)

This was a film that I had put off seeing because I was not sure that it would be that good. However I finally succumbed and got the DVD and I am very glad I did. The film is genuinely scary and maintains its edge throughout. There are some wonderful moments of misdirection where you think you see the deaths telegraphed and then the result is not what you expected but even scarier.
The acting was very good for such a young cast although the two FBI agents were the most wooden and unconvincing parts in the whole film. This, however, did nothing to spoil the film at all.
If you like films with a real edge with some 'jump out of your seat' moments then I recommend this one.
