That Loser

Yipes! This movie scared the HELL out of me, God.

Two moments stick out in my mind. **SPOILERS** One is the “fireman falling” scene, and the other is when the camera looks down the staircase and sees the horrors that are heading its way. And the last 5 minutes or so.**END SPOILERS**  These are not cheap “monster pops out of a corner” scares, mind you, but deep, terror inducing scares the likes of which made me regret having watched the film slightly drunk at 2 in the morning with no lights on.

Though I think it did try a bit too hard to explain everything at the end when there was really no need; what made it scary was the seemingly chaotic nature of it all, at least for me. That’s not to say the explanation given wasn’t satisfying, it was just a bit too much for what was essentially a straightforward plot up to that point.

Oh, and the main female character in this film was a cutie. Perhaps a little too cute to be in a film like this.

Aside from that, great movie, and scary, damn scary.
