This was a curious little movie, which had some really original and interesting ideas, and for the most part executed them really well. Considering it is an independent movie, with a smaller budget, the effects are fairly convincing and the acting was pretty good from all concerned, and very believable.
It is a slow burner, but does ramp up in the second half, and has some great scenes.
The Storyline is a little confused at the beginning, by which I mean it is not explained very well. Basically, an Archaeologist/museum curator finds an old statue in the deserts around Iran, and when she returns to Australia, strange things start to happen.
The only real criticism I have is that it was almost like two separate stories, the initial one with the archaeologist, and then the second part with her friend Also They seemed to make a big deal about the soldier who was accompanying the archaeologist in the beginning, but then he sort of disappears and is not involved again.. There were a few plot points which either didn't quite make sense or remained unexplained, but I would definitely recommend this to lovers of supernatural horror.
