Please do add the english subtitle and make it available so my hearing-impaired relatives can also enjoy it, I'll add more stars once you guys've done that. Thanks in advance.

No, it's not critically acclaimed. Yes, it has its ups and downs. But I reckon it's a good, fun "scary" movie with a bit of heart.

Not a fan of horror films but this has a strong story and the comedy in it helps to underscore the genuinely scary moments.
