this movie starts out a bit slow in the beginning, but picks up speed towards the end. the basis of this movie is about a small town with a very dark secret mainly involving murder, betrayal, and human sacrifice. the acting in this film for the most part is good, and for some of the characters is really great, especially from the guy who kind of looks like a younger Jack Nicholson. if you like a movies about hauntings with good special effects you might like this film I enjoyed it.
