...but this movie is more of a psychological thriller, not scary. It's more about the state of mind of the protagonist, how to resolve wounds of the past in the crucible of the present. It was marketed as a genre film...but it's not...not really. It's in another class from The Others and Sixth Sense.
Eppis had it right, this movie reminds me quite a bit of Nic Roeg's Don't Look Back. Or maybe The Innocents. While it's not as good as Roeg's masterpiece it's an excellent movie.
I couldn't be happier about GDT directing The Hobbit. I'm prepared to be delighted by a fresh vision. This is the right man at theright palce at the right time.
