bad ending
Every once in a great while I find a film that has a combination of atmosphere, cinematography and anticipation that is so good that it is mind blowing. There's nothing special about this story or the acting but, there are several scenes that are so disturbing (not because of content but because of how well done they are) that this movie is going to haunt me for weeks. I watch alot of disturbing and violent films and I could barely finish this one. I was just that freaked out.
"I want you to know that I'm here."
Oh my god.

Brainy, indie horror
It may not be for everyone but this is a great, slow burn of an indie horror flick. As it slowly peels back the layers of madness you will either end up frustrated and confused or you will appreciate the ride it's taking you on. The scariest things in life aren't what we know, it's what we don't know.

I obviously fall into the camp that loved it. Great script, great cast, great direction and great aesthetics for a low budget movie.

Great premise, well executed, awful ending (slight spoilers)
Remember when you'd visit your grandparents and they'd play their favorite old tunes over and over and over and over again? Did it make you so crazy that you told your sister/brother that you were going to kill them? No? Then this film isn't for you....

Did I enjoy the film's premise, yes! It was well executed, the acting was solid and once you go beyond the "ghost hunters" concept and move into the why they are making this trip in the first place - it was good. Was I freaked out by some of the more suspenseful moments? Yes, absolutely. I kept looking over my shoulder and turning on lights while I was watching this. That part was fantastic and I felt the film delivered in giving me the heebie-geebies. The scene at the cave really caught me off guard.

Was the ending a complete and total let down - HECK YEAH! The premise held promise, the actors had me in full freakout mode and then? Well, I won't tell everything, but let's say that even the Cowardly...
