    Creepy yet darkly funny in all the right places
    I was surprised by how much I really enjoyed this movie. I would consider it a character study/studies of sorts with elements of both comedy and horror in the mix. After all, that's life isn't it...taking the good with the bad?

    Each time it started to get really creepy, the author (it's my understanding this is based on a book) throws in something to make you laugh, even if it's a wry one. But before it could approach being too hokey, the scene would shift and something on the darker side would be thrown in.

    I was also think a lot of people will be able to relate to this film... No, you likely don't have a dead great Aunt returning to your life but within the cast, you will almost assuredly find yourself nodding or maybe rolling your eyes and thinking "Oi, I know someone just like that!".

    So yeah, this is a good option if you want to take a break from whatever it is you've been binge-watching but don't want to end up sickened by too much gore or triple checking your locks before bed. The only reason I did not award 10 stars is because, since it's a bit open-ended, I was disappointed to find it was not a series.
