I think the most impressive piece of this film is the acting. Both the father and son feel real and have quite a lot of depth. Far beyond whats expected of an indie horror film. Very three dimensional characters. The concept I think was very well with ironically the minor flaw being the horror aspect. I see this happen sometimes with horror movies where they build up the emotional suspense and drama then ruin with a lame boogie man. Thankfully with this one immediately does a 180 and turn the monster into something far more complex and interesting. Although it does a thing at the end thats similarly groan worthy as the ending of Sinister. I think they should have just throw out the jump scares in this one and let it be a supernatural drama. When it's doing that it's great.
In summary I would just say if you've looking a bunch of jump scares you may want to skip this one. It's more the vein of a drama with horror aspects.
