out of nowhere

Rating: 9/10 (9 April 2007)

I can not believe this film was made by two young guys from Australia, on a tiny budget, with very little experience. Not that you need to know those things to appreciate it. It plays like a well-crafted thriller from a team of experts. Beginner's luck, perhaps. The main set is truly scary, with creepy lighting and a claustrophobic feeling. The acting is solid, with one of the creators of the movie in a leading role. I found the twist at the end to be a little bit predictable but still very satisfying. I can definitely see how they are able to make lots of sequels, it's a great concept with a lot more potential than you can fit in one movie. Jigsaw is the scariest horror movie character of our time!
