Yeah it was fantastic. Everyone in the theater seemed to hate it though. It's less about the supernatural and more about the effects the supernatural has on an already bleak situation. The director said The Shining was a big influence and that really comes through.
I just got back... It was the least scary horror movie I've ever seen. People have been comparing it to the shining and other Kubrick movies, but it lacks the scares.
A lot of people seemed disappointed leaving the theater. I know I was.

That's great and all, but the real question; was it any good?

I've heard it was pretty good. It's horror that just tries to be scary. Not scary but shoehorning in levity for no real reason.
