Not a single scare and I wouldn't class as a horror but it was still a good film.
Not a bad film by any means, but its not as clever as it thinks it is.
Not horror, so don't expect scares. It's a good movie though. The ending however, is really disappointing. This is really unfortunate as the acting is brilliant throughout.
Liked it, good film.
What the fuck is this shitshow? Not worth it. Terrible story, terrible ending.
