sempremilanista I have seen this movie twice now just to make sure I had a decent understanding of it. It starts out interesting but very soon takes a weird and dark turn. This movie kind of reminds me of certain Spanish movies where the outcome is just all kinds of bad. Lots of anxiety, creepy lighting, and sadness, and no glimpse of hope. Depression and a quite precarious sense of being accompanies this film, and the lighting and setting doesn't help. Creepy glass and dim lamps pair with the sad and oppressive theme. To its credit, certain scenes are for sure creepy and "jumpy" like the ones with the "demons" appearing outside, but for me anyway, the jumpiness of the lead character and his manic crap made me nervous and just took away the fun of an otherwise good horror flick.

Solomon Terra Lots of ideas being bandied about, but I'm pretty sure I get what's happened. Major spoilerage, though, so don't read if you haven't already seen the movie - but might.That said... I'd wager that everyone was already dead at the beginning of the movie. The couple were ghosts who didn't realize they were already dead, thus the girl whispering, "Don't open it" in her sleep near the beginning of the movie and then again at the end just before revealing her corpse. After panning across her corpse at the end, you could see that the chain was hanging off the door - it was already unlocked. That's the way the door was near the beginning, when Alex first opened the door to let David in - he noticed the door had already been unlocked and the chain hanging there, and had to go back into his apartment to retrieve the key so he could lock it again.David, too, was already a ghost by that point. As was the woman in the apartment upstairs - though I suspect she wasn't one of David's victims, but just another ghost living in the building. It's possible that the playing with the lights _could_ have been the living, who they couldn't see - kind of like in "The Others".That's my guess, at least. Makes more sense (to me) than some of the other speculations I'd seen. I don't see any parallels to "Paranormal Activity" at all, and in fact would say this movie exceeds the PA franchise by a great deal in terms of quality.

Amanda Soto Let me at least say that I liked the camera work right away (but could not stand the audio). I liked that there weren't any cheap gimmicks you almost always come across in the horror genre. But that's the only praise I can give this film. There was a lot of useless exposition and scenes that did little to nothing to further the plot. It lacked timing and it didn't use its effects to their full capacity. I didn't jump once during this movie, but I did get bored and wondered when the scary stuff was coming. The ending was predictable. The part where they're running around the building with nothing following them was just annoying. It had all the components that should scare its audience with unseeable things that are lurking in the dark yet failed miserably at utilizing them, because it showed what the monsters looked like too soon. It was frustrating because supposedly these things can prey on you even if you can't see them, but they never actually did anything (except at the very end). Also, didn't these people have jobs? Why didn't they just leave?
