My taste in "horror" films calls for visual 'ghost' and paranormal occurances. This movie is lacking to this regard. This film has a few unexplainable 'paranormal occurences, but outside of that, don't look for this to be a 'ghost' film. This is more of a Jack Nicholson "The Shining" type of spirit possesion with obsessive and psycho behavior from one idividual then anything else. There is an element of truth that makes the story inviting... and to what degree does not really matter, but the manner was a big disappointment for me.

The first time I saw this movie I thought it was great but since I saw it again, it felt like there was something missing. Music is creepy and the house with the half circle window's is chilling to imagine. I love when the blood runs down the walls, and the acting in the movie is exceptional, but it was more slow than I thought it was.
