The hype behind this movie is what makes it truly scary

Rating: 7/10 (7 November 2008)

I remember this film was hyped up so much as the next great scary movie; as good as Exorcist or even better. Naomi Watts is a reporter who investigates the death of her niece and four other teenagers; there is an urban legend about a tape, after watching ti the viewer will experience spooky situations and then die.
The film builds up to the end brilliantly but for me the hype was a little too scary; but its wasn't as terrifying as I thought, the film itself is very weird, a woman brushing her hair and it works it keeps the audience watching and trying to work out what is happening. Naomi Watts is brilliant as the reporter and keeps the audience on the edge of their seats, she proves that she in fact is a great actress. The other actors are satisfactory and the end is very thrilling and jaw dropping.
