Review:
This is one of those films which is really stylishly and beautifully shot, and it's all in subtilty and cinematography. It's rather slow moving, but the story is a clear one. A strange couple accidentally end up with a kidnapped girl on their hands who dies because of their neglect. She then spends the rest of the film turning up everywhere and haunting them. It's really really slow though I warn you, and although it's got the elements of horror it's not exactly a "horror" film. It's pretty much bloodless and well not much ever really happens but it's effective all the same.
