Reviews

TheScott

Just a really scary movie. Imagine being in that farmhouse and there's that giant demon-thing coming to get you - will find you. Probably the best Clive Barker film adaptation. Sure it's a B movie but the acting is very nice and the scares are there. I cannot recommend this film enough....
