This movie ROCKS. They just do not make movies like this anymore. Thinking this to be another of the usually pg-13 standard 'oo-kinda-creepy' fare that is nowadays becoming as common as the slasher flicks of the 80's, I was shocked to realize that it was instead a monument to the art of movie-making. While indeed still surely holding onto aspects of terror, the story did definitely surprise me in unfolding into one of such emotional magnitude. I wasn't too huge a fan of the director before this...I now bow in respect. The acting is beyond amazing. I was unaware before viewing that Weaver and Brody were members of the cast. I now understand why they were. The score is magnificent. The timing is superbly orchestrated. A glorious testament to the power of love.
