It had a great plot... but the props and production were so poor that it ended up being a cheesy horror flick... I laughed through it! Oh yeah, it's not that I necessarily blame AfterDark Films for it... they're new and don't have a whole lot of money to make great production. If it had been produced a little better, it would have been one of the best I had seen in a while... If you can get past it... great... if not... oh well!
I definitely would rent it all over again knowing what I know now because it did gave some great jumpy moments where I was screaming, and some just overall creep-you-out factors. For the most part, the movie did have a great story line and plot. I really enjoyed the whole poem/curse idea, but it would have been a lot better to get some background information. I think it would have been better to see more of the scary scenes, for instance, one of the main characters is found beaten up; it would have been a lot better to see her scared out of her mind, running through the house.
Also it mainly focuses on the married couple, and not the other two people involved, so you really do not see a lot of background information with them, so it feels a little rushed in that sense as well.
Plus, the whole affair issue was not played off very well at all. It would have been more effective if the wife at least slapped the other woman or yelled or something. However, talking calmly just did not cut it for me at all. So I'm not sure exactly what they were trying to accomplish with that scene either.
The ghosts in the film were incredibly unbelievable; they were bug-eyed, and a little more than skeletons.
