I thought this was a really good ghost type thriller. It kept me on the edge of my seat the whole time and also had a very dark mood to it. Wish there were more scares and gore though. Also the pacing is very slow so if you cant stand those types of movies than stay away.

interesting idea, brillant atmosphere but a bit too boring

A really dark, mood drenched intelligent little thriller with a strong lead performance from Emily Blunt. In it's supposed simplaisticness it manages to pull some great scares along with a truly intriguing storyline.

EH, No gore and limited scares. The atmosphere was pretty gloom, but the scare factor I was looking for was not there.

i thought it was fairly good i thought blunt did a really great job and i loved the story i thought it was something a little different and more original than your average horror flick these days.

BUT

there are a couple of downsides, some of the scenes just dont seem to fit and some parts of the story just dont make sense

on the whole though i did enjoy the movies its a fun hour an a half that has a few moments of geniune suspense and kept me guessing to the end, but if you hate plotholes that i advice you stay very well away from this movie

Im glad I didnt listen to the review on this website because I think the film deserves more credit than what little has been given.
Comparing it to boogeyman and grudge and all that just seems a bit far off to me.
It's a ghost story, yes, but to me the real horror of the picture is being stuck in freezing weather in the middle of nowhere, that fear alone drives the film I think and the fact it does have a ghost story in it is just another feature of the film which makes it less boring for people who cant pay attention to psychological films very well.
I felt there was good chemestry between the two main characters, I enjoyed the mystery of it as well, suggestions are given that one of the characters may be a bit off, which I thought added more mystery and suspense to the film.
The downside (which all films will normaly have) is some confusion where things seem to really be hapenning or not be hapenning...
Had they shuffled out some of these problems in the film it would have recieved a higher rating from me.
I really didnt see why the film is given a really bad wrap on this page, but then again this site also gave mulberry street and deaths of ian stone and the strangers all really low scores when those 3 films are all really great films.
Dont always go by reviews from people running a website because some films others just like more than others.
I try to watch movies based on knowing little about the story and trying to avoid knowing anything more before I watch it, go in with medium expectations and an open mind, then make a opinion about the film.

I have watched alot of horror films based on good reviews on this site, such as The last house in the woods and I absolutly hated it, so I dont go by everything they suggest and recommend.

If it sounds interesting watch it, you'll never konw what films your missing out there if you believed everything people say.

I actually thought a little more of this film than the BD review gave it credit for. I consider myself a gore hound. I appreciate exploitative images and graphic occurences in film... that's just always been my thing. If a horror film does lack this (which this film does), then I rely on viscerality, cohesion, and good character development in horror films. In my opinion, these were all covered quite well. The atmosphere was well executed, and the acting was decent enough to suspend one's disbelief. I guess this is just a hit or miss with most folks, but I don't get scared easily, especially when there is no blood, guts, or intensity at all, instead this movie relied on it's protagonistic embodiments to deliver scares, and, at least, my girlfriend and I digged this one.

This film was a nice entry in the ghost story genre. Emily Blunt is convincing and a capable actress to carry the entire film. It's by no means a fantastic film, but if you like your horror with a little character you should give this film a viewing.

I enjoyed this, ok its not a splatterfest of blood but its a good ghost story which was intriguing and kept me entertained, so yeah i would recomend it if you like a good ghost story plot.

Boring, Not scay, and just plain stupid.

Actually original, and a breeze of fresh air (pun intended) to the genre.
Blunt is fantastic as always.
