This is a very unique film and is definitely not for everyone. The pacing and lack of a gripping narrative will put off most audiences. For me, this was easily one of the most frightening movies I have ever seen in my life.

As a child (and sometimes even as as adult), the fear of darkness and loneliness can be crippling. This fear is very human and innate in most of us. The feeling you get when peering into the wood line at night, or staring down a long, dark hall. Irrational fears when you think about it, but still fear nonetheless. In this movie, your fears are justified. There is something staring back at you, and yes, it does want to hurt you. You cannot hide, and you cannot escape.

The film manages to do so much with so little, but I do wish there was a bit more subject matter. I understand what the director's intent was...but it got a little dry at times. With that said, I can't remember the last time a movie made me feel genuine fear and anxiety. I actually shielded my eyes at times, and that takes a lot!

This one hit different.
