Saw it two weeks ago. IMHO it has some narrative flaws: Characters make
too many intuitive leaps, pace is slow, and too much of the story is
explained. But it's an interesting treatment of urban legends, it has
some truly disturbing scenes, and no blood at all. Plus I liked the
ending. Worth watching, I'd say.
