This movie made me a little ill... which is a good thing, 12 October 2006
9/10
Author: Kate Petrov from United States

My boyfriend likes watching horror movies, and I've kind of got sucked into them as of late. We just checked this one out, and it made enough of an impression on me to comment on it. It's about this girl, Launa that goes off to look for her little sister and ends up at a creepy old (haunted?) prison.

First off - The acting. A few surprisingly good performances compared to most of the horror movies on this level. A few sketchy performances too, but overall not bad.

The look - Again, I'm basing this on similarly budgeted movies (there's more than you think out there). The look of the movie was very unique and impressive. I found myself even saying "wow, cool shot" from time to time. Beautiful colors and vistas... not to mention the main guy wasn't too hard on the eyes. There were a few moments of dodgy camera-work though, but the good definitely out-weighed the bad.

The scare factor - I was pleased with the tension and dread they built into the movie. I even jumped a few times. It dragged in the beginning of the movie, but once they get to the prison they catch their wind.

The sound - Very sparse. Perhaps too sparse at times. A lot of the music was very odd, but I think it worked for the most part. It was a lot of synth music, however it wasn't done in the typical cheesy horror score kind of way. The feel of it was definitely electric synth that came across oddly organic. I liked that they didn't throw in a bunch of rock music and try to call it a score. The rock music they did have was very nice.

The gore - I think this is where a lot of the big positive marks come in. The gore was disgusting and plentiful. I do love when a movie has fun gore like this, even if I can't watch it all the time. We had a good time getting grossed out by guts splattering on the ground and girls crawling through pools of blood riddled with chunks of human flesh. Very nice! This is not the most memorable movie, nor is it the most original, but it's definitely worth a look.
