Warning: Spoilers
The first minutes of this film don't reveal if it's gonna be a good movie or not. Reading the synopsis we get to think it's just another dumb scary movie, but as the movie goes we can see it is not. In most horror movies involving haunting and entities the characters don't leave the haunted house because they don't believe in what's happening-- that's very cliché. In this movie the main character BELIEVES, but can't leave the house because she is in house arrest. Sometimes we notice it's a scary version of the classic "Ghost", but it doesn't spoil the movie's quality. Special effects are plausible and well done-- considering it's budget, they are actually GREAT. Famke Janssen and Bobby Cannavale are two relatively unknown actors that surprised me with such good acting, I didn't think they'd be this good. Photography is beautiful and story is well written-- with exception of Poltergeist movements from the ghost--, making it hard to believe an independent movie would be so professional. All in all, this is a surprisingly good scary movie that afflicts the spectator, don't miss this picture!
