Brilliant concept for a horror. As good as it gets.
Problem is the direction is TV chick-scare standard, the acting is ordinary, and the music is overblown and intrusive.
The surveillance camera scene in the bedroom is crucial and should be blood freezing. But the direction is so poor that, even though we're shown what happened, we also have to be told what happened. And all the other chills are delivered in '80s clichés with du-du-duuh music. Also there's an unnecessary explanation flashback in the doctor's story.
Even so, the final sequence is eye opening. Only to be ruined by the ridiculous delivery of the line that gives the title to the movie.
What a waste. I guess the author is kicking himself for signing away the rights to this production team. I'm going to check out his novels - interesting character.
