Review: Interesting
movie, strange and
moody, dark and secretive. I found this show to be rather slow moving
at the start, but it moved along, developing the plot rather well,
and in the end, it all fell together. The ending is a bit disturbing,
but refreshing from the norm. Different from the beginning, it might
be worth the time if you like a creepy movie. Not a horror movie as
expected, but a thriller in it's dark, twisted heart. Scary for
littles, so don't bring them, but not a nightmare inducing horror for
older viewers. Interesting is how i would describe it, but not
engrossing, a good distraction if nothing else better is available.
