when i bought this some time ago (had to order from the UK), i wasn't sure what to expect. slasher or what. i was pleasantly surprised with the result.
it has some genuinely creepy and disturbing moments from the start, and the whole time you're kept on your feet as to what the hell is going on. i can't explain it. i was thinking "oh sh*t!" the entire movie. it's quiet, it's intense, and surprises even the most seasoned horror fan, though i wouldn't categorize this as such.
Paddy's character is both welcoming and menacing at the same time, a perfect acting job, he should have received some recognition for this. instead American audiences know almost nothing of this film.
I have become such a fan of Paddy Considine and will watch whatever he comes out with from now on, he simply makes brilliant choices as to what to associate himself with. there's a lot of passion on his part. that alone makes for a worthwhile viewing experience.
