Should you watch it?

You know what? Despite the fact that I really only had a vague idea of what exactly was going on, I greatly enjoyed this movie.

It’s slow and arty and has a strange kind of ethereal beauty about it. It’s one of those movies that leaves you thinking after it’s done. Something that could be about all sorts of things, or perhaps none at all. It’s completely up to you.

If you’re in the mood for something really Scary, I’d say you should probably keep looking. But if you want something spooky yet artistic? Something off the beaten Horror path, perhaps? Well, look no further.
