Aroview: Moody Australian haunted house flick about a young woman who inherits a retirement home possibly contaminated with a malevolent spirit. Not a classic by any means, but the eerie gothic atmospheres, Argento style electro score and a justly celebrated final shot provide definite interest. Kiwi director. Williams' second film after Solo.

I find this review offensive! I don’t agree with this review. I agree with this review.
3 stars (Good Enough) Competent horror with the screenplay working most of the time. The house provides good atmospherics especially with the odd thunderstorm & power cut thrown in. The choice of soundtrack was odd & it proved more of a diversion but who cares it was good. ~Tubbs
