I saw it yesterday and I loved it.
It is a really and interesting story about a mother and her missing kid. I think the best of this movie is the brave sense of motherhood. Not only the sense of panic and sorrow after the missing is really well developed but also the courage of a mother who only wants his son comes back.
A good movie for all horror fans with really great scary moments and a touching and powerful ending.
Maybe it is not the best horror movie but it is made with emotion and sensibility and I think it deserves a vision.
