No, the reviewer is wrong. I'm pretty sure everything is explained. I'm surprised that the reviewer didn't catch all the rules, considering that they are repeated ten times throughout the movie.

I liked the movie. There really is only one way to describe a movie like this, and that is a very long Twilight Zone episode.

Yes, it is cheesy. Yes, it can be boring. And yes, pretty much all the complaints the critics have said are accurate. However, as long as you just let it all go and allow yourself to care about what is occuring on screen, then you'll be ok and more than likely will enjoy the movie.

With that being said, the ending is terrible. It just ends and leaves you hanging. I also can't recommend seeing it in the theaters. Wait for the DVD. It'll be a solid rental.

Jam it back in, in the dark.
