Dumb sensationalism that trusts blood-buckets dumped on thesps are enough to raise a fright.

Angry young working class Nick West (Andrew Howard) narrates this hideous story for us in an engaging and self-referential manner that, surprisingly enough, adds to the entertainment value

With only two horror flicks under his belt, Adam Mason's already a director to keep an eye on.

I’m convinced they wrote this solely with the intentions of Jason Statham playing the main character. It can only explain the Alibaba wholesale knockoff they trotted out there. I will say, nothing says horror like a man yelling incantations at a demon in his fancy PJs.

A dark, gross movie, in the best way. I can't stop thinking about it even years later.

No jump scares. Hardly any scares really. Entertaining. The climax is properly disturbing. More of a who-done-it, with a satisfactory ending.

Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars

It was bad to begin with, then they added the horrible narration and start. An unsophisticated Shutter Island cum Session 9.

that ending though! my thoughts and opinions of this film were totally changed -- and i mean just COMPLETELY changed within a fraction of a second. what a hidden gem; i'm so surprised the audience reviews didn't rate this higher. i guess i've seen enough horror flicks that i really appreciate these kind of films versus the same-old-same-old that somehow gets so popular. if you're into psychological horror, i'd recommend this one. it's got a pretty cool monster, too, if that's what you like.

This movie would get 5 stars if it weren't for Gant's horrendous acting.
