a little film that packs a big punch

Rating: Null/10 (28 October 2009)

Watching this film, I was sort of reminded of The Blair Witch Project or Open Water. Movies like this show that you don't need a big budget, big stars or grand special effects to make a quality film. This film was made two years ago and has just two main actors. It clocks in at 85 minutes and doesn't even have a soundtrack or credits and yet it is the film everyone is talking about. I liked the fact that unlike so many horror films it doesn't use gory special effects. I have always loved ghost stories and watching this made me think of my Boy Scout days telling stories around the campfire. SPOILER ALERT, this film is slow to get started but once it gets scary watch out. The last scene of this film made me feel like I had swallowed an ice cube whole. Ahhh! you'll be scared.
