I don’t know if I would necessarily call this a horror film. I mean, there’s some gore, yeah, but it’s kind of sad. More like a psychological movie than horror, in my opinion. I still enjoyed it and would recommend.
I can not STAND predictable movies that have been done before! You know exactly what the history is after approximately one minute. I was so disappointed bc i had high hopes after reading a couple reviews. I got to the end and thought, well I was only 2/3 correct, so it wasn't a total loss. But then it got to the very end and yup, there was the third third. >:( I am also extremely disappointed in the people leaving bad reviews just because they have to read subtitles. That has absolutely nothing to do with THE MOVIE. If you don't like subtitles, don't watch foreign movies. I gave it three skulls. Minus one for predicatablitity (but everything has been done, so it is hard to find original ideas nowadays) and minus one for the very slooooooooow moving story.
It wasn’t horrible but absolutely great click that button don’t pass up on this one absolutely great twist
Absolutely fabulous even though I had to read subtitles it was such a great movie not
original, different. says a lot of different things and yes sad horror.
