Interesteg What makes it different from others?
Protraph Lack of good storyline.
Tedfoldol everything you have heard about this movie is true.
Arianna Moses Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.
adam_91313 I decided to watch this movie after finding it on a list of horror movies made in the 2010-2017 range. While it was interesting, it was predictable and I personally figured out the surprise twist ending about a third of the way through. The ending was ultimately disappointing but i dont regret having watched it. At about the 45 minute mark it basically becomes torture porn and there were a few moments that were a little unsettling. The story is not very original especially if you have ever seen the movie "The Other"
sunznc Whoa! Powerful, dramatic, engrossing film. I haven't been this surprised since "The Other" with twins Holland and Niles. I was not expecting the ending. Caught me completely by surprise.The acting is excellent by everyone, especially the twins. I was so involved I never even thought how it might all end. Wonderful seeing a film with no CGI, no chase scenes, no explosions, no mindless action. If that's your thing you won't like this. This is going to haunt me for a long time.
fluffyunicorns143 I usually like long and drawn out movies that have an ambiguous ending, and that's what I was expecting out of this movie. I'd heard reviews that had raved about this movie and its 'twist ending'. The minute I started the movie, I knew the twist. It isn't even a unique one. It was too long and too drawn out with little to no point in the ending. Reviews and descriptions of this movie detail how the extremely ambiguous ending is good, because of all the different paths you might have predicted happened in the completely unexplained history in this movie. They start many paths that could happen, but then nothing is explained, not even in a way that makes you think. All you can think is "okay, what? and why? and what is the point?" I've never hated a movie before, but this one was just pointless.
Jorge Fernandez With over 100 reviews to date, I will only add that this movie is a great depiction of denial, grieve and guilt. The rest is cinematography and acting, which are as good, by the way. It's sad to read so many bad reviews criticizing the badly hidden twist, when it was never intended to be hidden. It's shown very early what's really happening and we just have to watch how these characters deal with the terrible situation. Whoever doesn't get it in the beginning should watch fewer teenager horror gory flicks and pay more attention to what happens below the surface in films like this one. It reminds me of the Antichrist and Babadook psychotic managing of guilt and grieve.
