Icky poo. Sorry cannot tell you the story. I do not mind some of the productions being in Spanish when I am prepared for that as some tails are told best in Spanish instead of translating or poor attempts at dubbing.

However, unless you looked closely, this critter gave no warning, hint, or heads-up that it was Spanish with English subtitles.

It also has slow noisy background music so even if I follow in the little Spanish I know, I cannot stand this disjointed and noisy sound.

Turn the sound off and keep your finger on the pause button. In some places you can use the fast forward button.

3/10🌠🌠🌠 First off it's a spanish movie with english subtitles which I do not mind if the movie is good so I gave this a try because of the gorgeous ana de armas who has appeared in a few blockbuster american films like "Blade Runner", but this film that was kind of appealing at first it's shot in Black and white and has a cool relaxing feel to it on the top but the undertones were pretty creepy and I thought it would lead to something. Unfortunately that something never came the film is a total borefest with so many things that were not explained and led to nothing. Why they let these films get produced is beyond me. No one could of read this script with holes in it galore and come away thinking this movie would be good. To get into each and every detail of what was wrong about it really would divest my time into rehashing thought about a movie that just doesn't deserve another recap. Do not waste your time unless you wanna watch wasted cinema but that's ecaxlctly what we have here. The description explains what it"s about but the strange presence described doesn't hold water at all. Yes some things are done that are strange and unexplained and they try to laminate a demonic feel over the surface of this canvas but to no avail does it render the genre description of horror just because you cut the lights out and stare at each other Prick your finger and drip a drop of blood into something doesn't garner a fearful description.. They used the word lame in this movie a few times and that's a pretty accurate description if I do say so myself.

Yes, I came to watch this movie because Ana de Armas. And I like the acting, the three actors did a well job. This kind a movie do not pleasant all the people. You must think about, do a little with your brain, it is a psycho-horror. Soft, with a melody drama music, and low mood. 2 girls want to share the rent of an apartment, and they are choosing among the candidates, then a old man appear and take the room. There is a mistery about the last lady Anabel, that leave the room, before the old man came. It's worth your time, it's spanish cinema, good talks and some of dark culture in it.
