    Horror movies are difficult to make [good ones I mean]. The script was well done. Maria Bello and Sean Bean did a great job acting. The location and cinematography helped with the success of the movie. Overall, all elements worked well and if I was generous, I would even give it 4 stars.

    If you wanna see a good suspense horror type movie with Sean Bean. Rent Silent Hill or even Flightplan. This was a deja vu type movie. How many are we going to see of these? It's like The Ring 2 and Dark Water rolled into one but... this is worse.

    Well I hate to be the only reviewer so far who didn't like this movie at all. Great scenery and fine music that fit the mood. But, something was missing beside the young girl. I may try watching it again and see what I missed the first time. It was a real stretch for me to give this film 1 star.............
