I can't help but wondering how more awesome it could be if the same story got the film treatment by directors like G. Del Toro or J.A. Bayona (The Orphanage)! The story got all the potential to be the next big thing in Horror arena after or alongside with Let the Right One In.

I'm sure it would've been better but it probably would've been a completely different type of movie as well focusing on the brother and his killings instead of the little brothers issues.

He keep going there, but never delivered.

---SPOILERS---
'Not seeing it' didn't deliver. And how about this... the scene where the abducted husband plunges his hand into his wife's pregnant belly, which was a dream, that's never explained. Did he want to harm the child? When he's found alive, it should have been revealed. But it wasn't. No time or budget for that?

And after the husband is home, and sees she's pregnant, he gives a confused look, and that's it. That all we get? Budget constraints on this character-driven horror film? There's subtle, & then there's just too brief & not enough. And with budget constraints, there's creative ways to reveal what the creature is, it's motives, etc. Some reviews suggest this is an independent gem because of great subtlety... of what? characterization? This didn't deliver Terms of Endearment characters.

But since it didn't have your suggestions, it was pretty bad?

LOL! "couch dancing"! The horror of a wasted Friday evening. They should just put a big yellow burst icon with the words "Soft Porn" on the box.

To be fair, I probably should have watched the whole thing to see if the plethora of sex, booze and drugs was integral to the plot but I just found it too juvenile.
How do I quote just part of a post instead of reposting the whole thing?

Ok, keeping in mind that I am technically challenged, do you mean just backspace till I erase it all? There's got to be a better way.

Select the bit you want to delete with your mouse cursor.
Put the cursor at the start of the bit, click and hold the button, drag the cursor to the end of the bit you want to delete. Press delete.
I hope this helps.

Thanks sweetie, but I should have stated that I just have a touchpad so I have no mouse. I thought there might be something in all the little icons above the message I'm posting. ( I don't even no what half of them mean).

Thanks too, horcrux.
