overrated

Rating: Null/10 (15 April 2003)

The scariest thing about this film is that it stole two hours of my life! It is well filmed and directed, with pretty good special effects. I watched it on a laptop DVD with headphones and the sound was quite impressive. Still, the whole story hardly made any sense at all. Without going too much into spoilers, Where did she come from? Why was she so bad? What was her motivation? What the hell was with the fly? The horses? The list goes on and on...
I guess it was worth watching just to look at Naomi Watts. Made me want to watch "Mulholland Drive" again. The only thing good about this film is you can play tricks on your friends after watching it, like calling their cell phone and whispering "seven days...." What fun.
If you want to see a GOOD scary movie rent Carpenter's "The Thing", "The Exorcist" or "The Evil Dead".
