The art of subtlety.

It would be so easy to dismiss the very deliberate pacing of this film as pedestrian, but in this day and age of gratuitous violence and constant gore, this film relies on the ability to slowly torment you, as toy watch the hideous way in which the young couple are subjected to the night from Hell.At the time I genuinely did find this a very unsettling, unnerving watch, going home to an empty house after this was unsettling.Ignore those that call it boring, trust me, it isn't, it's paced in a way that throws you off guard.No clear begining, or end, just a series of random events. It's a grim movie. 7/10

Perfect atmosphere

The story can be so-so, but how it´s cut, directed and edited makes up. The pacing is perfect for a movie like this. But the aspect that strikes the most for me is its atmosphere. As a perfect late night movie, this one will creep you out mostly thanks to its unnerving look.
