Not what I expected at all. This was startling. It had me jumping off my couch. But the scares were combined with strong performances from the entire cast. Kevin Bachar's script was unpredictable but effective at every turn. The story unfolded as sort of a slow burn and rose to a rousing crescendo. The riveting original score and sound design was chilling. I'm perplexed that Hollywood spends tens of millions to make tired old rehashed stories when modest budget films like this are out there. If Hollywood would only put their money behind something original like this. I think part two can't be far behind.
