This isn't a great movie.  But it's not a bad one.  The problem with it is that it's too short.  This could have gone on much longer and if the producer's wanted to give us a better product, they could have given us an extended version of this on DVD.  The story is a good one and Matthew Fox genuinely terrified me.  It's too bad that he dies at the end, because I'd like to see more of this villain in another film.  Don't get me wrong, he had to die, no doubt, but there is a raw power to this character.  I had a hard time separating Matthew Fox the actor with his character in here.  That's a good performance.

 

It's too bad they didn't flesh the film out a bit more, it could have been really good.
