I really like the first twenty minutes or so up until the character "died" (or whatever the hell happened to him). From there, it quickly became about a rich emo kid that's really unhappy about his home life because his mother doesn't give him enough love or cares about him (or something or other). Somehow, we're supposed to relate to that. I didn't buy it at all because one, his father died five years ago and most people would've moved on; two, his mother isn't that bad; three, he ended up relying on his "killer" to find his body. Sounds confusing? Well, it kind of is but that's supposedly okay because it's a supernatural thriller. If the film had retained its great focus (as I said, the first twenty minutes of the movie), it could've been a really good movie about existentialism. Plus, the main character's poetry isn't half bad. I would've liked to hear much more of it. The lesson I took away from this movie is that emo kids don't have interesting stories to tell. (Okay, I think you get the picture that I hate emo kids.)
