I would love to ask the person who gave this a 1/10 and said it took him three days to get through it why they continued watching. In what world with freedom of choice would keep going back unless something was drawing you back. Some part of this film on some level showed something to make you continue watching. Ever never done anything that I would call tedious unless I had absolutely no choice. Bad movies are everywhere with streaming services popping up daily and the ability to pick thousands of movies for free why would you waste even one night watching crap. This movie is far from perfect and i wish I could scream "LETS GO" and be magically heard by those involved but unfortunately that is impossible right now. I saw enough to keep me interested and to continue watching. Doing the minimalist thing has problems and people involved didn't do themselves favors with how dark it is but to make this film the plot demands darkness so I'm not sure how else this could be made. Having this be a almost completely one person movie to has issues as well but the plot demands that. So the problems I have with this movie are plot related and not an issue of talent or budget which can drag movies better than this on down. The creep value is at the top, the tension is obvious and plentiful and the kids and the chubby leading man have enough skill and while the movie is nearly in complete darkness the director is clearly skilled and while the quick cuts are numerous I don't think they aren't only used for jump scares. If you enjoy tense rather then gory this will work for you if love slashers this isn't for you.
From the song in the opening credits, I should've known not to watch this. It sets off how bad this is.
This Irish ghost story is somewhat of a bore, 85 minutes of very little actual activity and barely even any dialogue.
A lone construction worker ventures into an abandoned derelict care home to seal it up and prevent vandalism but discovers ghostly happenings within.
Trouble is very little happens and when it does it's done frantically and incompetently.
Saying that the film was made for a declared budget of little of £100 and that's outstanding! Regardless it is what it is and it is........a bit of a bust.
The Good:
Well made considering the budget
The Bad:
The "Encounter" moments are noisy, shaky cam, overly long messes
Recycled sound effects
Too many "Filler" scenes
So criminally boring

Okay so you go to the Cinema to see a film made with a VERY low budget you don't expect to be that pleased so you expect a not that great film... From the 1st scene I knew straight away that this was not going to be a poor film the quality, the scenery EVERYTHING was just right. It felt like a film you would see around the world but no this was a local film and I just cant believe that a small team with such a small budget managed to pull this off! I cannot imagine what quality of movie could be made with the millions of pounds budget big names spend... For a young crew I can see a very bright future for YFP (Yellow Fever Productions) and I look forward to seeing more movies by George Clarke and Robert Render!
A nice little ghost story. I can understand the bad reviews here and elsewhere, after all the American viewing audience has been reduced to the level of a twelve year old. If it's not a Marvel extravaganza Blockbuster, or another re-hash of Lucas's 40 year old trilogy , it's just not worth watching. Right? First it is not a American production so don't expect it to be a roller-coaster ride of thrills and effects, second it's low budget again don't expect it to be a roller-coaster ride of thrills and effects, and thirdly the people depicted are not Americans so don't expect them to act, talk or look like they are. The story telling is quite good, the atmosphere is quite good, the acting is quite good over all. If you're a fan of horror from Ireland, Scotland or Wales then you'll probably enjoy it, if you're not then you wont.
