5 stars (Exceptional) Unique among horror films for it's kooky creeping dread set amongst windswept pagan rituals and coloured by kick arse folk music! ~Shiny
5 stars (Exceptional) ~Regando
4 stars (Very Good) The writing is intelligent with a slow build up but heating up at the finish. The Scottish shooting locations take your breath away as does the final scene which they would have had to get right the first time as there is only one Edward Woodward. ~Tubbs
