Ratings and reviews

Went to see it in the cinema when it first came out, and it isn't a good film, if you enjoy horrors made for simple mind then you might like it. But when the biggest scare is a bear, and that's not even that scary, you can't enjoy it. It's not a horror, it's a documentary about bad horrors.

I like this. It scared me at the jump scares. Made me jump out of my skin, it was freaky. I just felt like getting scared for an hour. Good movie.

If you like jumpy movies then this film is for you. Enjoyed it from the start & would definitely watch again.
