My wife and I had an opportunity to see a "free movie", so...The problem with nearly all films like this is they count on the "gasp factor" to carry the film. This movie, indeed, had some surprising moments, but overall left both of us rather unimpressed. The problem with movies like this is that an emotional attachment is really never developed between the audience and the characters. The Sixth Sense was only marginally better, largely due to Haley Joel Osmont's character, which one could feel some sympathy for.
Not a horrible movie, but I'm glad it was free.
