My quick rating - 6,5/10. This is a well made movie. No other way to put that. More of a psychological thriller than horror per se, the film really touches upon a few topics, and does so in a convincing fashion. Four siblings are left to fend for themselves after their mother dies, and they do so by keeping it a secret. This is really one of those you want to see to take in the whole story, as describing it more or less just gives it away. The kids acting is well done as they more or less behave normally. The way the mental break of the oldest child is slowly conveyed, and keeps you wondering really what is real and what is not. Check it out if you get a chance, it really is worth the view, but don't expect a lot of jump scares or gore, that is not the type of flick this is. This really plays on the mind more than anything.
