I Thought the movie was pretty decent I watched it from start to finish I was intrigued with wanting to know what the end would be the characters were decent I really enjoyed the dad's part because I probably would've been a daddy's girl because I would have stuck with him the son kind a got on my nerves but I know it was acting but all in all it was a good movieIt was a subtle film with subtle hints of thriller it was not over done ...pretty much I liked. Without special effects and a whole bunch of scene changes I thought good. Need to go back and watch because I didn't understand the ants role.

I read the synopsis of this film and thought it sounded good. It started of well and I recorded it and couldn't wait to see it. So I snuggled down to watch this on a Saturday night with my husband and I have to say it's one of the worst films I've ever seen. And believe me I've seen quite a few bad films but this one tops it all. Boring and stupid and insulting to the viewers is the only way to describe this. At the beginning I had high hopes and it looked really promising but after about half an hour I realised that this is total rubbish. Don't waste your time folks. Complete utter nonsense with the most stupid ending possible. We have wasted 95 minutes of our lives that we will never get back. Such a pity as I said it started of looking good.

This movie is not agonizing in the way the bigger part of modern USA horror is agonizing: there are no priest vs. demons vs. supernatural feels vs. very sweet children in a middle-class context. This immediately lifts this movie out of the realm of mediocrity, and sets it apart from all the Insidious-like crap that's floating around the JW player jungle. A good thing was the moral ambiguity in the son's character, as well as the lead actress'"maid".However, it's not really a scary movie for anybody older than 12. This shouldn't even be considered a horror film, imho. I liked the story, but found the execution somewhat flawed in that the main characters (other than the maid + son) could never really convince in their authenticity. Also, the sound-design/music is typical meh & Hollywood-esque (no creative montage, no purist electronic usage, sub-par interaction of visuals and audio etc). The tempo is kinda slow, but not too slow; the story is not very original, but original enough.All in all a so-so one-time watch, but nothing more.

Waste of time. Amateur story/screen writing/music/directing. Thriller? You gotta be kidding! All predictable cliché. Not worth the release in theaters or DVD rental. I was hoping for a certain twist to the plot. But the story just keeps dragging until at the very end you are left wondering what the production team was thinking when they made this movie. This is more of a story in the newspaper, sad but not worth turning into a feature film. I'm giving it 2 stars for the effort. The main characters are all badly acted. Any college student studying filming would have just as easily directed and written this script. You're better off watching reruns of past hits.
