Not all that satisfying, but the vibe makes it worth the watch

Rating: 7/10 (28 May 2015)

I actually liked the retro feel of this movie, especially when it came to the soundtrack. I think the vibe of this movie really helped it elevate it's atmosphere and such. While it also appearing to be a homage to horror movies from the 70's. I gotta admit I personally was creeped out when it came to the mystery surrounding what was going on. And when the first few times the incident starts to happen I found that there was some tension there. But after a while the film didn't appear to be all that scary. Creepy but the tension started to wear off after a while. The plot isn't all that original and has been done in other horror movies before. In fact it sort of felt like a blend of "Halloween", "Final Destination, "Drag Me to Hell" and "The Terminator" (1984). But what made this movie memorable was the execution and how it played upon with the atmosphere and the surroundings. Also the ambiguous mystery surrounding the plot actually added something alluring and yet creepy. Except I felt that certain things were a bit too ambiguous and certain things just didn't make much sense. Now I don't mean the characters had to get their magnifying glasses and start investigating like some of the mainstream horror movies that are out. But I felt certain explanations was needed to make this movie at least a bit more satisfying. Maybe it's being left out for the sequel that will delve into the origin of how the whole mess started. But since I am grading this movie right now, it felt like a good watch but lacked that high satisfying feel. Overall, this is a terrifying concept that is done with a good enough executuion to make it worth the watch.
7.3/10
