Really pulls you and keeps you there despite plenty to remind you that you are watching a movie. Some of the acting lets it down. Some of the characters are weirdly intense, racist or just rude without anyone challenging their words or behaviour which is strange. The grandmother came in all hostile - again weird behaviour for a first meeting with a stranger likely to be in danger and the story line is sometimes disjointed - like the sulky naive teenager that suddenly indulges in lesbianism with no real lead up to the story line. The grieving family move into a home with the same feature that caused their grief in the first place and the boy comes out with creepy sayings but no one asks him about it. Yet despite all that there's enough redemption in this movie to keep you watching to the very end. Weird but interesting.
