A bit controversial, but fun to watch

Rating: 6/10 (28 August 2018)

I am a horror movie fan, but this proved to be a bit difficult title to review. Did I enjoy it? Yes. How was the acting? Mostly good. Did the movie get to me? Here and there, yes. But would I watch it again? Probably not. Would I recommend this? Definitely, if you like suspenful horror films and despise jump scares - this is a movie for you.
However, I do get why some people here have given this movie such a low score. It is a slow-paced story and yes, the ending could've been more unique or clever as the rest of the film had been. But by all means it's not horrible, far from it.
If looking at the whole movie it's definitely enjoyable - yes, the pace is slow, but for myself I found most of the story so interesting that it didn't bother me at all. There were some very well done scenes where the time seems to stop, but it fits with the general atmosphere.
So, the biggest problem for me was mostly the ending. It was still well excecuted and some scenes were highly disturbing - even when they looked like they were done with Photoshop and a steel wire. But it was like the writer/director had grown bored with the story just before the end and just let his neighbor finish it for him. This might sound harsh, but hey, I've seen worse.
Still, as I said earlier, very enjoyable movie and most of the time it creates it's own path and doesn't slip to the clichÃ©s.
