I'm so confused...
That was weird. Nad confusing. And sorta scary.
Xenosteel responds:
a deadly combination :P
thanks!
not too shabby
okay:
I didn't really find it unsettling, sorry.
It had some creepy moments, but it was too incoherent and random to actually enjoy. When about 80% of the movie consists of text and not enough imagery, it is dissapointing. If you are going to do a thriller/horror, you need visual imagery to back it up. Not that it didn't have any, it actually had some, but it seemed to lack in comparison to the text. Also, the imagery was just cheap thrills, I'm sorry if I wasn't scared by it. I did turn off the lights and turned up the sound, and I dead jump once, but becuase in one scene the sound was so sharply, piercing loud. You need to warn people not to do it becuase it's more annoying then horrifying. The concept was great, but it is dissapointing to actually stop the movie after viewing and trying the link to the deleted scenes. This is a bad point because you get taken out of the experience and it loses it momentum of scariness. Voicework was great and it feels more of a richer experience to hear it in other then english. Music was probably the creepiest thing in the movie with odd noises and babies crying. Just wish it wasn't so on the boring side and more disturbing and trust me, your ideas aren't that disturbing, creepy at most. At least it was more psycholigical then just pure violence.
overall:
Not bad, but should have more visuals and more original ideas. It just seemed typical thriller with ideas I have seen before. Voicework and audio was the highlight of the cartoon.
Wasn't that scary, but maybe thats just coming from a horror/thriller fan that has seen his share.

thank you for the amazing in-depth review, very critisizing = very helpful! This is one review I'm noting down because it will make me want to do things with a better quality!
About the imagery, I made it quite blank, I guess thats my style in doing things :)
I had no choice with the deleted scene thing because it exceeded the 16,000 frames limit :(
It was pretty hard to follow..
It was good at the begining but it started to get confusing at the end!Well if it was sopposed to be scary it wasnt at all!!
Review
While I can accept this may be a good film, I will never know. I don't watch films that have to jump at you (ie, "The Ring", "The Grudge", "The Village") to get your attention. It's not worth my time.
Wish I wanted to watch it, but oh well.
