Actualy, the "negative" reviews I've read of this movie sort of surprised me... it is NOT a "horror" movie in the classic sense... it is a suspense film and a romance.... and (I thought) completely riveting. So what if monsters don't come bursting out of the foliage every 30 seconds? A "neat" little film with a message.... and the acting DOESN'T suck.... what more could you ask for?
