“I just saw this tonight and Iu0026#39;m positive I wonu0026#39;t have any trouble sleeping. I find it hard to believe that there was so many people positively terrified after seeing this movie. It wasnu0026#39;t a bad movie, but it wasnu0026#39;t scary. There was a certain amount of suspense, I suppose, but I kept watching in hopes that something really frightening would happen. I think the actor and actress who played Micha and Katie were excellent. The characters were well developed. At a certain point, Micha was aggravating the hell out of me. I understood his motives for certain behaviors, but still, there were times I just wanted to smack him. The ending was interesting and not really expected. I just didnu0026#39;t think it was scary. This movie comes off more of a psychological thriller than a horror movie. Too be honest, I canu0026#39;t even remember the last horror movie that really frightened me. Anyway, I donu0026#39;t think Iu0026#39;d recommend the the price of a movie ticket to see this, but itu0026#39;s worth a look when it comes on cable. Maybe itu0026#39;s worth a rental fee. Perhaps I was expecting too much after all the advertisements and (so called?) testimonials to its scariness.”
