This movie is carried entirely by its fantastic cast, but the story goes nowhere and the ending is terribly unsatisfying. This is particularly disappointing because Eliza and Clayton were such compelling characters.

It's not that I didn't 'get' it, I just didn't see the point of any of this, why was this film even made ?

More likely to annoy you than scare you. I couldn't wait for it to end.

Why even bother with the B plots except to pad this potentially fine eighteen minute short film into a feature length film? The acting class, the child actor and his girl pals with their sexless dancing? The horror is neutered by a lack of anyone we are made to care about. Did anyone not see [spoiler]the engravings[/spoiler] and know what was going to happen? Wait. Maybe the AUDIENCE is the victim? That would be a chilling approach.

Some great acting from the two leads but it completely fails in terms of horror. It's literally just the last 10 minutes. Story was slow and boring. At least we got to see Timothy Granaderos.
