Maybe if you're into still lifes... Seriously, what's up with this movie? Right from the beginning, you know that you're at. The first scene is just lead Lena Heady dressing up - underscored by the creepiest music a 15-year-old can think of on his brand new keyboard. So you know the movie tries to be scary. Sadly, it remains at trying.
There is about two dozen shots of things - architecture, furniture, ordinary stuff - accompanied by this teenager's music. The worst scene of the movie is a shot of a hallway. After an actress walks into a bathroom, the camera stays out in the hallway for 9 seconds. Doesn't sound like a lot but it's just a boring set of walls and doors, I could really feel myself aging there. Then, the camera starts to pan to the kitchen at the pace of continents drifting. I'm not kidding, the pan spans about 15 ft. max and it takes, I timed it, 24 seconds! When we finally arrive at the kitchen, I can confirm that the retro fridge is by Smeg and that's it. All in all, the scene is 35 seconds of exciting London middle-class interior design.
Aside from still lifes, the movie also has the generic premise (horror with mirrors, whee!) and the seen before twist ending, that most people figure out 10 seconds after the first plot point.
But the worst thing is that NOTHING is explained. There are antagonists here, who's presence, existence or motivation are not explored at all. Some pretent... I mean, insightful people want to sell this as Anti-Hollywood, inspiring us to think for ourselves. But no, screw that. There's a difference between 'leaving some mystery' or 'reading between the lines' and just no telling half the story. If I wanted to use my imagination that much, I wouldn't be watching TV in the first place, I'd be gathering people at my feet, telling them fairy tales of dragons & princes while smoking my hookah.
