Storyline

Shrouded in a veil of mystery, Sonja Daneel arrives at the luxurious Hotel Njala, which belongs to the Joubert family, to start as the establishment's new receptionist. However, following a freak car accident, Daleen can't remember who she is, where she comes from or why she chose to accept a position at this place. With the help of the cynical lieutenant Conrad Nolte, Sonja hesitantly sweeps aside the veil of her forgotten memories and begins to uncover disturbing details about Hotel Njala and the Jouberts. A series of murders shocks all involved with the Hotel to the core. Sonja Daneel realises - only by confronting her true identity can she save her life and put the ghost that has haunted her past to rest. Written by Danie Bester

Boring, Stretched and Illogical
6 October 2012 | by (Pretoria, South Afica) – See all my reviews

I went into the movie with a positive mind, expecting a thriller. The camera work and production was good, better than expected, but that is where the positiveness ends.

The lead characters were dumb and unlikeable, the script was dull and nonsensical, and if you consider this a thriller, you need a psychologist, a few people actually walked out, but me, regrettingly, being brave stayed to see if there is a twist, but no, it was a drama type of twist, NOT A FREAKING THRILLER.

The wolves have nothing to do with the story.

Don't waste your time.
