2/10
Disappointing Horror film Without any Fright
8 December 2006
Warning: Spoilers
This film has nothing outstanding or even average about it, on the whole, it is the work of a very immature director who only wanted to make a film for money on the quick.

The plot, or the tedious 1 & 1/2 hour worth of filler, is absolutely ridiculous. Insane dialogue is scattered in long tedious shots.

The acting is atrocious, most of the actors look like they belong in some cheap cabaret in a skid row area of town; they can't express true emotion that the roles demand. Take for example the lead inspector, he is an insincere and unbelievable character whose inability to solve the obvious murder case is incredulous.

I sat there bored to death, and the other reviewers said it was 'scary'. Nothing at all was frightening about this, the dumb monster is played by a guy in rubber makeup and he's also blind, someone should have just torched him.

The ending is not only expected (heroine saved, monster killed) but abrupt and absurd, as the lead inspector shoots the monster while it is holding the heroine from about 80 yards, while it is up on the castle balcony.

Avoid this if you can, it isn't worth anything.
