It's definitely atmospheric and the direction is incredible - Slow, elaborate, very Hitchcockian - It's clear that the Writer/Director didn't just want to roll out another remake; this move was done artfully.
Great creepy little horror movie and definitely one of the best of 2008. I HIGHLY recommend it... And now I need to see the original.
4/5.
