Pros: Good cast, spooky sets and great cinematography Cons: Not really a horror film
If this review seems familar to anyone who recently read it that is because I just moved it to the category in which it belongs, Movies in theaters after I inadvertantly placed it under DVDs and Videos by mistake. Please pardon my faux pax :) ...
