Overall. A pretty typical, decent little horror flick. Easy, basic premise that does what it's supposed to do. The only issue is Kate Bosworth is awful in this. Did the director tell her "okay, same expression..whole movie...go"? It doesn't matter whats happening in the movie...her eating toast, her husband getting eaten by clay monster, driving to the bank, seeing a woman spiderwebbed dead against the wall. Doesn't matter to this woman. All the same to her. She walks in the entire movie not afraid and it goes away from the entire movie. Such a shame.

Not bad other than kate bosworth awful acting
Not a horror but a supernatural drama
Advertised as a horror, this film is more a supernatural drama. A unique film with interesting characters and a solid plot. This is until the ending. The ending is disappointing and leaves the viewer with more questions than answers.
More of a supernatural drama than a full on scare horror
Decent movie, it has a couple flaws in the script (which I can't really point out without spoiling stuff so I won't bother doing that) but the resolution was brilliant and Kate Bosworth pulled one of her better performances as of late so it's well worth seeing.
If you are looking for a horror movie to have you by the edge of the seat the whole time, this is probably the wrong movie to pick but if you want to see something original (as far as horror's goes at least) then this is not that bad of a pick.
So yeah a solid effort with an emotional punch and it also looks very neat visually.
If you liked HALF LIGHT (2006) with Demi Moore and DRAGON FLY (2002) with Kevin Costner then I think this should be right up your alley.
