    • Quotes

      Domingo: In a crate sits a cat and a particle that kills the cat, with a possibility of 50%, within an hour. As long as the crate is closed, how could you know if the cat is dead or alive?

      Juan: I don't know.

      Domingo: Nobody knows. Actually the cat is dead and alive at the same time. The person that opens the crate decides which option becomes reality.

      Juan: I don't understand...

      Domingo: No human understands. Those are only speculations. But the quantum physics brought men to the moon. That is reality. Like you and me, or this whiskey.

      Juan: Does that mean we could assume parallel realities do exist?

      Domingo: In the '50s yes, nowadays nobody believes that. I only believe what I see, and I don't see anything. A parapsychologist would say, what happens in that house is a fraction between possibilities. One of them happens over and over again, a man that kills his wife and his kid. Every day. At the same time, and forever.

      Juan: What can be done to stop that?

      Domingo: Nothing. You can watch but you can't interact. If you try to save the cat, you eventually end up in the crate.

    A couple discovers there's something wrong in their new house
    This is NOT the typical old house horror movie.

    A young couple with his kid (about 1 year old) moves to an old house. They soon realize there is something wrong in the house when they start using a baby listener (and wireless TV monitors later on). They think there is someone (a thief) trying to get a way into the house to do a further robbery or kidnapping of the kid, as it seems the most sensible explanation for the things that are happening. Juan starts to fear and can't sleep. This will affect their marriage as well as Juan's job. He will try to find out what it happening...

    It doesn't take much to do a good terror movie, and this is a good example. A good idea, very real characters and reactions (they pass through different stages as they cannot understand what is going on), I found it really frightening despite (or due to) it's simplicity.
