Review:
Fantastic movie!

I really wasn't expecting much, as I didn't know too much background behind this movie, but I must say I was pleasantly surprised and fell in love with the movie.

I think it was perfectly presented, with a wonderful cast.
It was both scary and intense.

I definately recommend it!
