Scary as hell!!!

Rating: 9/10 (17 May 2011)

This is top quality horror. It creeps inside you and gives some serious scares. When couple Josh(Patrick Wilson) & Renai(Rose Byrne) move into a new house with their young children one of their sons has an accident while exploring the attic. The next day he doesn't wake up and the doctors are baffled by his brain activity which is not usual for a coma. Things in the house then start to turn very creepy....
The likable Wilson here is the family man back to playing the nice guy we saw in 'Lakeview Terrace' & 'Watchmen' as opposed to his comedic villainous role in the recent 'A-Team'. Byrne here although playing a worn and stressed out mother still manages to look good and demonstrates her range. Also impressed with Lin Shaye(Magda from 'There's Something About Mary') playing it straight.
This is a highly originally and engrossing horror and definitely up there with recent crowdpleasers like 'Drag Me To Hell' and 'Paranormal Activity'. See it at your peril...!
