This is a classic example of a semi-competent film in need of a story. A great deal of work was put into atmosphere, and the actors work very hard. But the plot - if you can call it such - is a tale full of sound design and furious art direction, signifying nothing. In short, I think the writer - if there was a writer - had to be lit like a Roman candle when he or she typed out the disparate story lines here (which are never developed and only hastily resolved in terribly brief, unsatisfying scenes). Most of the action involves the usual "let's split up and search" trope, and the "scares" from creepy things jumping out at the viewer.
Sad, sad sad waste of perfectly good film.
