It's possible to have a great budget, good editing, and an interesting plot, and still come up with an absolute clanger. This movie is it. It manages to be eerie without tension, creepy and repulsive without any fascination, and stylish without any substance whatsoever. The plot is poorly structured, frustrating the viewer with too much information too soon, and tries to reintroduce suspense through the use of music and silly plot twists. The dialogue is poorly written and badly performed by actors chosen mainly for looks and European accents; character motivations seem strange or nonexistent, and lines are delivered deadpan or with too much force. It feels like a bad play performed in a nightmare, by vaudeville actors doing melodrama. It's a Dan Brown novel without the acid, and it suffers. Beware! Idiots at Large! "They" will get you!
