My take:  I was a bit apprehensive to watch this cos well, the synopsis doesn't really tell much, nothing intriguing there, but then it's got a fairly good rating of 3/5 stars so I said ok.  and it didn't disappoint, now i know not to ignore public ratings next time, lol. While the movie doesn't really have an intense high-and-low moment, or that feeling that every scene is building into a huge climax, it did have its really good, chills inducing moment. And my most fave scene ever, one I personally think is enough reason to watch the movie, is a live performance of the song above by the fictitious band Black Stones, you really have to watch the movie to appreciate how great the moment is. two words. goose bumps.
