Movie is good, not great. I did enjoy Kris Aquino screaming on top of her lungs. It's pretty funny!

Ok, I'm not in to this movie, but I believe that they seem to get the picture right this time. I mean, whoever shot this movie was amazing. I mean, the picture was amazing. It improved over the years. I think this will be considered a stepping stone for other directors out there. As for the content, it wasn't bad at all, it would be better if they got their own story asides from getting some scenes from the movie grudge. Stick to the original guys!

This movie is not bad for a horror flick. It has a bunch of rehashed themes from "The Ring", "Final Destination" and other horror flicks but that's understandable. The movie is paced properly and there are no "cheesy" horror effects. It's more like a 3 1/2 out of 5 for me.

Surprisingly entertaining...the plot was believable although the scene with the shotgun might be a tad overworked. Aquino's acting was a little awkward but she had some memorable moments. Overall, this movie is tingling and engrossingly spooky.
