Hated it *  (one star)

Do not bother going to see this film in the theatre.  In fact I'm not even going to suggest you to rent it. This movie was horrible.   The sound was bad. The lighting was really horrible and the cinematography was a disaster.  In fact someone should tell them that dark and blurry does not equal scary. 

I went with a few friends and my entire group wanted to leave the movie in the first 30 minutes, but I promised it would get better and it didn't.  Needless to say we all left the theatre really irritated.  
Was this supposed to be a scary movie? Or was it supposed to be a slow moving heartfelt character driven drama that had some creepy elements as they discover their unavoidable destiny?  Honestly there were a few startles at best, where a door slams loud and you jump, but no scary moments.
If it was billed as a mystery it would have been so much better. Enticing the crowd to come find out why this little girl named Joanna (Sarah Michelle Gellar) hurts herself and why she has unexplained memories.  If it was formulated in a way that the audience could get caught up in trying to figure the puzzle out then it might have been compelling, however even in this version the audience knew what was going on and why she was messed up before it was even Explained.
Basically, this film is not a horror film as the trailer promises, in fact its a bad attempt at slow moving drama with an element of suspense.  It was really bad.  The only saving grace and Im trying to be nice -- is that in the last 5 minutes of the movie there is a touching Love story, that stands the test of time.  Dont waist your time or money.
