First of all, i want to give credit to Olga Kurylenko because have done a good job in this movie as criminal psychologist Kate Fuller, who investigates the murder of a man and is haunted by demon who kills people in their sleep. Unfortunately, the storyline in this movie is too slow and boring. This film can make you fall asleep in the cinema. So Disappointed .
Not gonna waste my time telling you what the movie is about or who stars in it. You already know because this review is BELOW the plot summary and csat list. Also, I am not trying to build a career as an imdb reviewer.
This movie is a fun scary movie. Not a blockbuster hit kind, but a good solidly scary movie with all the required elements but performed and directed well enough to enjoy all those elements once again.
But for one thing, why so dark? They always make them dark now. It's like they don't realize people actually have lightbulbs and light switches on every wall. Afraid of the dark? Then by all means walk down the long dark hall without flipping a single switch She even takes a bath in the dark. Give me a break. I'm too busy trying to see what's in the dark to get scared about what I don't ever end up seeing.
Other than that, it's fun.

So the story is not an original one ,, watched a couple of movies about that that "ghoul" or "djin" that comes to you while you're paralyzed in sleep .. but to be fair ,, there was actually more than a couple of creepy seat jumping moments ... I mean it wasn't all bad ,, even the ending was just a bit improbable if i might say.
The cast were all good ,, Olga Kurylenko did a good job ,, such a talented beauty ,, I loved her back in 2007 Hitman ,, and to be honest haven't seen her much since ... That Dougie character "Craig Conway" was also really good.
Overall ,, Not the scariest movie in history ,, but it's not bad at all ... watch it at 2:00 am and you'll know what i mean :D

Some of the ratings are too hard on this movie in my opinion. Mara was not amazing, but I genuinely enjoyed it! The plot was predicatable, but the acting and atmosphere still made it hold my attention. There were a few cheesey moments that were supposed to be scary, but it was surprisingly visually appealing and had pretty decent makeup for a low budget movie. I would rate it a 6.5, but since that's not an option I'm giving it a 7. I would consider watching it again at some point in the future.
01/12/2019 Lots of female screaming. Lots of quick, sharp bangs with the occasional creep-O music/sounds. Not impressed with this movie in any way. Glad it's over. Hope I never watch it again. Bon Appetit
