7/10
A good low budget horror but it is lacking

Came across this on amazon prime. I had some doubts because of the terrible poster. However, the movie does indeed give some incredibly chills. The main character gives a great performance and he made the movie all by himself with is amazing. When creepy thing do happen, it is very suspenseful. This is due to the fact it feels incredibly real. There's no over the top moments that make you roll your eyes, it's a good subtle horror. I also like the fact that's it's very for your interpretation on what is going on. Is it a spirit? Or someone messing with him? However, I was slightly disappointed with some of the scares. Sometimes it felt a little bit to repetitive and the same things were happening over and over again. The first couple of times it happens it's chilling and then gets a little old. I'm talking about the chopping of wood. The flute playing gives me the chills everytime it's on. Which is the best thing about the movie. Who would imagine adding something like a flute in this type of movie and making it skin crawling. The ending as well fell a little short, it's not an awful ending, but I was expecting another 10 minutes and it just abruptly ends. The movie does what it's supposed the though, which is deliver creepy scares that a lot of found footage movies today seem not to do.
