Ummm...what the hell?!
Unoriginal
Emily takes a job as overnight carer for a bedridden man in an isolated country house. There are only the two of them, but as the night goes on she starts to see and hear things she can't explain, leading to an uncomfortable truth...
The photography's good (although I'm guessing they could afford only one camera) and the performances are fine. Unfortunately,
a) There's next to no budget - and it shows, b) it's only 75 mins long, and feels really rushed at the end, and c) the ending rips off The Others but makes far less sense here
All credit to Sophie Stevens though, who as Emily pretty much carries the movie. She's obviously talented.
4/10.
