This Movie is thrilling as hell. Ewan plays a great Matrin, who spends his vacation working as a nightwatch in a morgue, but the deads, his friend James, some whores and the Police make his nights, he intended to spend learning, to a horrifying theater, where, until the end, you don't know who is the bad, and who is the good. I say thumbs up!
