Good idea ruined

Rating: 5/10 (17 September 2011)

After watching this film the first time I have to admit it was quite jumpy and creepy at times. The start to the middle of this film is brilliant, good acting, good story line and an excellent idea. The positives of this film, mainly the idea of going out of your body when your sleeping, which i have read about people believing they can do this. Even i must admit that I've had dreams where i had overlooked myself sleeping. So allowing people to relate to the movie is great. The creepiness that you experience in this film is the kind that makes you not be able to sleep at night, with the small child laughing and running around, but not being able to see his deformed face properly makes it worse (apparantly). Now for the problems, there are a few that ruined the film. firstly there was 'the man with fire on his face' this was just funny, it ruins all of the scary shadows that you might of saw throughout the film of this devil kind of thing. It basically just looks like an ugly man with paint on his face. There are too many hidden meanings in this film, after watching it more than once and also watching the making, they talk about how the child was a deformed man, which in the film you know nothing of this, and the devil man was meant to of rubbed lipstick all over his face? i just thought it was a bad make up artist. Lastly the further idea and the possessed child also ruined the film, making it boring and just plain funny. Overall worth a watch but not the greatest film.
