Gripping throughout.... good 90 minutes., 21 August 2008
8/10
Author: Asad Khan from Pakistan

What else do you expect from "Blair Witch Project"'s director. A true gripping, suspenseful, thriller drama that leaves a few bits hanging lightly to viewer's imagination.

This movie has a perfect beginning to become a suspense masterpiece. The setup, the music, the acting, everything comes together throughout the movie... till the end. It seems as if the director and his team were going for greatness and then decided to be normal in the end... maybe it was shortage of funds or ideas.. who knows.

No matter what the others say about the movie, it is one that shouldn't b missed. A true worthy entertainment.
