No, this not a slow burning horror, it's more like a slow paced attempt at a horror film.
No, there are not lots of scares and moments that will have you jumping out of your seat (there's a few attempts to do this, but none of them actually come off - also, someone needs to tell the director that simply turning up the volume in order to try and scare people is just annoying, especially when you do it over and over again).
No, this film is not well acted. The acting is mostly just okay, but mixed with moments of cringe-worthy acting fails.
No, this film is not well paced - in fact, in several places I almost reached for the remote to hit the fast forward button. The middle section is quite repetitive (for no good reason) with all the various visitors coming and going.
Basically this movie could have been a short film - in fact, it probably should have been - but the decision to extend it's length just turned it into a rather slow and very average attempt at horror.
Like I said earlier, I strongly suspect that the glowing reviews for this film were written by crew members, or friends of the director, because this is definitely not a memorable horror film.
It's a b-grade movie at best, and while there are hints of talent and skill, they are still a wee way off coming to fruition.
