Despite its familiar genre trappings, this nastily efficient horror film delivers genuine chills.

Critics on Rotten Tomatoes
Top critics, in their words
The film maintains a deliberately unhurried pace that builds tension naturally and with minimum interference from the soundtrack.
For horror fans, there are ... enough gruesome images, icky concepts and "don't-go-there" moments to carry the day.
Even by the low standards of scary-movie plausibility, mononymous first-timer Makinov exhibits brazenly little interest in psychologically grounding his story.
Makinov tries repeatedly to mine suspense from slowly creeping up on his actors with the camera. If I'd directed this bunk, I'd hide my face too.
