I read the bad reviews and completely agree with them. I totally do NOT understand the good reviews.
Let sum it up in short. Decent suspense, interesting to a degree, but then, the last 10-15 minutes happened. What the hell??? What happened there? Hell if we'll ever know.
They NEVER explain what's going on with the girl. EVER. The movie has one of the worst endings I've ever seen. They leave you completely hanging for a clue as to what's really going on, and never give it to you.
It frustrates me to no end when a movie never ends up explaining just what the hell is going on for, well, the entire movie.
Is she possessed, is SHE telekinetic (not some demonic force), is she evil, is there some evil presence behind everything, all of the above? Who knows!?! You'll never find out. It just ENDS, with her tears red. That's it... it's over. No explanation, nothing.
I thought the movie was slow, but decent up until things got more confusing towards the end. Obviously, the girl was sexually and physically abused. We learned that much. What's REALLY confusing is that she seems terrified of something we never see. Towards the end, she's not scared at all, and turns demonic.
What's that about? So first I thought she was being stalked/protected by some evil spirit, who "punished" her abusers. Later, we see that she's behind it, I guess. Well, why have her scared of something out the window, as she's looking though, at various times in the movie, as well as just around her in general. She says a few times that "It's the house", as if that was where some evil entity lived. Well, turns out that's not the case. The TK elements follow her everywhere.
If she's out to punish everyone for what happened to her, why protect the two abused kids??? Why does she kill all those other children that never hurt her, never made fun of her, etc? The story doesn't make a lick of sense. The writer/director leads you down one path, then just changes the story towards the end.
The ending scene was easily the most confusing and most STUPID part of the movie. It didn't make ANY sense. Did the other two kids die as well? Why did they become evil? Did the main character die too? Like my summary says.. if you want some serious frustration, watch this movie. It will frustrate you long after you stop watching it.
I think the makers of this movie are sadists and their audience are the victims.
