Definitely falls in the category of "fun scary". It's well shot, the acting is good, and it's perfect for a raining night with a bag of popcorn. It's certainly not terrifying, but it's still very enjoyable. One of my new favourite modern horror movies.

I find myself going back to this flick. A bit old school, but I consider that a good thing Usually religious over/undertones put me off, but it really doesn't interfere here. Great casting.

This movie is hands down one of the best horror movies I have ever seen. The first rime I saw it I loved to scream at intense moments to scare my friends since they know I dont get scared and wouldn't suspect it. My friend was so terrified at one point she started cry and hyperventilating. So be prepated to hit paused multiple times when you watch it ;)
