Starts with a fresh and unique premise but slowly...It's clever and it's horrific but the outcome is not the best pay off that it could have been. Jessica Biel who I would say is a very so-so actress is rather good in her performance. I really liked the first half of the movie and didn't see many of the twists coming but I couldn't help but feel a little disappointed once I'd reached the conclusion. It's overall a better than average horror flick but there's lots of better ones out there (and even more that are worse).

An absolute must see for fans of serial killer films. This is one of the best, inspired by an actual killer and his accomplice, it's a very unrestrained look at an artist who's particular talents are expressed with graphically realistic violence. The direction and action are top notch for the minuscule budget it was made on. One of those rare horror films that sits with you well after it's over. Check it out.

A very clever and well made horror flick. The idea of a haunted mirror initially comes off as a little cheesy. But the script's non-linear storytelling is intoxicating and the acting is superb. The film makers clearly realized the limitations of their budget and expertly used every cent to their advantage. The underlining premise of the narrative provides the scares and the chills not a bunch of hokey phony looking CGI effects. Originally planned as a series of movies, which has yet to be seen, the Blu-Ray contains the original short film that formed the basis for this movie. Watching them together makes for a fun watch that doesn't over stay it's welcome.
