An excellent movie, just make sure you watch it alone :)

I really enjoyed this movie and how it all came together at the end. Good original movie with great acting. I also love how there is only one copy of the movie in ever video store. When i went to watch it i had never herd about it and i just found this random R rated horror movie. My family was staying at the cost at that time and i just bought 5 or 6 to watch to kill the nights. I was all alone in the house when i watched this movie (recomended) and it messes with your mind at the end. The circumstances i found it in added a lot to it and you literally find yourself at the end locking doors and windows :P, great movie, i can highly recommend it
