A slow burner with some fantastic visuals and imagery. It probably needed a bit more to the story to make it a great film and I did wonder if something had been lost in translation at the end? Thought the lead actress did a very good job. 7 / 10
No tears, please. It's a waste of good suffering.

The location scout deserves a special mention; every location was, beautiful, eerie, perfect.
And what did they say the minuscule budget was 16,000 Euro??? Maybe we misheard.
As you say, a little more story; some more of this priest chap? would not have gone amiss.
Excellent film.

i think they said 50k.

visually arresting, but story wise there's not much to go on about. it had that Tarkowsky-esque long takes where nothing really happens, but supposedly signifies deeper meanings. i thought dialogue was really bad and acting horrible, but it is really impressive debut. i'd love to see these guys working on some solid script.

slow burner is the word on this one.

art house type with a good idea about being able to know what the other person is thinking by entering their mind via a voo doo type spell !!

While it was on if you read my mind you would have learned i was thinking about my tea and these seats in the prince charles cinema are lovely !

its only because iam not as intelligent as i should be to enjoy this though....great job on low budget but it wont tear your soul apart or be in the multiplex any time soon.

but for my credit i didnt want to watch demonic by ....cough......james wan !

I liked the look of this film a lot, but I get the feeling that the positives about this movie rest on the visual appearance more than the strength of the plot. The acting was average at best. I was enjoying it at the beginning, but then it just lost its way and nothing much seemed to happen. I lost patience with it and fell asleep in parts as there was nothing to really keep me engaged. 3/10 for me.
