Customer Reviews

this film is class
this film has a very good solid story. it has lots of surprises. the acting is superb (billie looks fantastic as always)a film not to be missed with good special features.

Ghost story rather than horror.
This is a fairly good film in that it has quite good actors and an ok story but it's far from great. I had not heard of it before and had hoped for a good English teen horror to rival all the American ones. If your expecting anything like House of wax or Scream you will be disappointed. It's not scary or gory but it has a good story. Only rented at first because I was surprised I had not heard of Billie Piper doing a recent horror film.
The plot follows 5 students who all end up in a rather large decaying house, typical student accommodation! Then it soon appears that the house has a dark past and there are other reasons the 5 students have been picked to be there. Not a classic but it could have been far worse and given the smallest of budgets this is ok for a nights viewing.
The DVD has a couple of extras. A 10 minute interview with the 5 main cast members on the story,cast and filming. It also has a 22 minute feature on Ghosts, mediums and psychics presented by Emma Catherwood from the film. Overall 5/10

Some kind of ghost story..!!
I saw this film not too long ago.. In fact, I rented this movie out. I watched it. At first, I thought it was going to be a really cool film. But unfortunately, this film didn't even live up to its standard. What's so special about it was Billy Piper from the 'Doctor Who' fame. She gets to do this film, but this whole concept where you've got five students staying at this house - something bad is supposed to happen. As for this film, nothing really did happen. It wasn't as scary.. I just felt this film didn't work out for me.. In the end, after seeing this film.. it was totally hopeless. I don't know why some British horror films weren't as really as good as the ones from the old days. The important thing is, these film has to scare the living daylights out of you.. This one didn't. Well, it comes to show.. Never make a horror movie without any scary scenes. A load of pappy show!
