Insanity or supernatural psychopath?... Cool movie!
Psychological thriller about 'Stigmatised property'- an all too common occurrence glossed over by estate agents! Really cleverly explores the blurred line between sanity and madness that any interaction with the paranormal creates.
Wow I have chills typing this. Truly mind-bending and unnerving. I watch so many horror movies that I have developed a high tolerance and it takes a lot to scare me. This surpassed my tolerance for sure. How am I gonna go to sleep now lol
I really wanted to watch this movie, BUT the closed captions trailed the action that I was left with choosing no CC or no movie. Sadly, I those not to watch.
Really enjoyed this movie .
