Did I fall asleep?

Warning: Spoilers
Seriously, did I? After the guy fell through the hole, grandma started acting weird, Beth is gone and then there is a car accident where an old man was hit. Who was that guy anyhow? At the end when the broken ankle guy has a chance to save the day, he has two choices, either untie the girl quickly and escape or take out grandma. He does neither, he spends it making googly eyes with small talk, so grandma gets him. She has what looks like a blade from a paper cutting machine and she's repeatedly hitting him with it. We never see him so you assume he's getting jacked up but later we see no wounds from that. I know he had a rough day but he got over powered quite quickly by her. Anyway, it was not what I expected and not in a good way. It could have had better delivery. It was very slow and the scenes in the first half, well, most of it seemed unnecessary. Also, it was confusing when she did see stuff all while pretending to see stuff. If it was a new gift, wouldn't she have had more emotion with this new found sight? I would have freaked out. It fell flat. The brothers story was half told as well. I will give it a 3 because to be honest, the scene before the title actually creeped me out and I did jump. Not because of a loud noise either, it was truly scary, which led me down the path of thinking finally, a good scary movie! Sadly, another disappointment in the horror genre.
