I feel this movie deserves my recommendation and I am glad to see it got out there. I saw this film at a small film festival in Salt Lake City and really liked it. In addition to the screening there was a Q&A with the director/writer Nils Timm and I was blown away when I heard how tiny the budget of this movie was, which made me appreciate this little film even more. It both has the look and feel of a truly mature director and storyteller. No doubt this guy has a bright future I am looking forward to seeing what he will do with a real budget in his hands. It reminded me of a great old fashioned thriller with psychological elements which you rarely come across today. It is not filled with monsters, ghosts and gore, but the movie is tastefully using a few supernatural phenomenons to make the story suspenseful in an "unsilly" way. The director even managed to add a tiny bit of humor in the scene with Billy Wirth. Would have loved to see more of this and of this great actor from the legendary Lost Boys movie!
