I normally don't see horror flicks , put a piece about it on NPR peaked my interest .

Is it worth the $8.50 ?

someone who is taking a house from her,

on edit so i dont get banned for using perogatives Gypo is a term to describe female gyps who have the gift. Yes it can be used derogatory but as its my blood i can get away with it.

6. Females with the gift?
My only experience with gypsies was in Europe. Are you saying the ability to curse someone is a gift?

5. Someone else saw it and reported back.
I don’t remember exactly what they said, but it wasn’t good.

7. I liked it
Too many horror movies these days are trying to rip off the Asian film style - which means no scares, just "atmosphere" and grim people sitting around being grim. And while I like some Asian films, it's nice to have a return to the blood, guts, and knowing campiness. It also steered clear of the usual objectification you usually have in female-fronted films and had a pretty topical message about greed.

Is it worth the money? Can't say, I got to see it for free. But it's at least worth a DVD rent if you're in the mood to be scared.
