Somewhat tense at times, but not truly horrifying

Rating: 4/10 (19 May 2016)

This movie was not the best in this genre or style. It was not slasher-graphic, so if that's what draws you, skip this one. It was tense without being really frightening. I feel that the movie tried to build terror and suspense, but I watched this around 8am after a good nights sleep and had to back up a couple times because I dozed off. It seems to want to be a more sophisticated horror flick, but did not provide enough chills for my taste. The imagery was also dark at times...which can be pretty spooky if the action and characters are detailed enough for you to still see what's going on. Lastly, I found the language (pilgrim-speak?) more difficult to follow than say...Shakespeare or Homer. Keep your subtitles on and pay close attention!
