I'm hoping for a sequel in which they crawl back along the same hall in the opposite direction.

Be careful what you wish for, we've already got a sequel to Blind on the way...

1. The Swerve
2. The Columnist
3. 12 Hour Shift
4. Av: The Hunt
5. A Ghost Waits

^ Ditto, switching the res down to 720 worked for us. Reset the router before the second film and it played fine at 1080.

I tried using it a couple of years ago - never received the order, and only got the money back via PayPal. No response to any emails I sent them. I would contact them before purchasing if I were you and only order if you get a response. As DJBenz says, you will be covered by PayPal, but it's a hassle.

3/10. Dreary anthology of world folklore that outstays its welcome by about half an hour and at least two segments.

5/10. A solidly run of the mill slasher that I quite enjoyed for the first two thirds, where there were possibilities to take it in a more interesting direction. It goes downhill fast in the final third once you realize that James ('The Rain Ripper') is indeed real and not a manifestation of Mary's ...

9/10. Standout of the fest for me. Strong storytelling, genuinely moving while eschewing overt sentimentality, coupled with imaginative cinematography and crisp sound design make this a real gem of magical realism.

6/10. After a day of damp squibs and non-horror, it was gratifying to watch an old school shocker that goes for chills and largely succeeds in its mission.
