I watched this movie for the first time last week, and to be honest supernatural stories tend to be unrealistic to me, and therefore i thought i would not enjoy it. However, this movie had some excellent moments and was generally believable. I was gripped by the storyline, even more so as it is based on true events. The roof scene(i wont go into any more detail incase you want to watch/buy it) is amazing, and very frightening. I was particularly impressed with the way in which the storyline unfolded and i felt is was well explored(there was no parts of the movie that left me confused unlike the usual supernatural thriller) and the acting was to an excellent standard. This is a must see for anybody who is interested in supernatural stories, and i would even reccommend it to those who dont normally watch stories of this nature.

This reviews not bad, but you probably need to go into a bit more detail in anymore you write, I watched this film, didn't really like it though, i prefer horrors that make you jump rather than the supernatural ones.

I see you've posted this as a DVD review, but you've not mentioned the DVD features. Are there any extras? If so, what are they and are they any good? If you add to this, or if you change it to be posted as a "Film Only" review, which can be done by accessing "edit review" above the review and changing the drop down menu under the "Which format are you reviewing?" question at the bottom, please let me know and I'll re-rate.
