More Info

Creeping urban horror at its best. Jennifer Connelly is awesome, as is child-actress Ariel Gade, who plays her daughter. Unfortunately, the movie did get a bit bogged down with some over-the-top silliness toward the end, but that's easy to forgive when taking into account the overall quality, characterization, and rich texturing of the film. I really got into it. Thumbs up.
