I really didn't like how the film ended and I thought there were some issues with the story that never really got worked out. As I said, there were some major issues with the film including the finale fifteen-minutes. The performances were a mixed bag but for the most part I thought they were good enough for this type of picture with Shaye turning in a fine performance and I thought a very believable as well. I thought the opening sequence was extremely effective as were some of the later scenes between Rainier and her brother. I also liked that the film brought some family drama into the matter. You curl up knowing something is about to happen but Robitel makes you have fun waiting for the scare to come. I kept think of Craven's thoughts while watching this movie because the scare scenes here are perfectly built up and executed. If you drag the build up too far then the scene will lose its impact. If you reveal the scare too soon you cheap seconds worth of tension. Wes Craven once gave an interview where he talked about tension and he said that you have to know how long to have a build up to a scare last. Director Adam Robitel is certainly the star of the picture because he does a wonderful job at building up the tension. With that said, there's no question that there were some major flaws with the picture but at the same time the film managed to be quite creepy at times and this here made up for any other issues.
