Yeah, it was a trip to see a then-unknown Cooper in this relatively unknown flick in a small supporting role---he has the least amount of screentime, yet he's become the biggest star out of the cast of this film since then--go figure! In fact, all three horror films he's been in to date have either delayed releases or never gotten the promotion they should have gotten----like The Midnight Meat Train and Case 39. So I don't blame him for shying away from the genre. This was a good fiim,though, and I can't help but think after seeing the ending of MLE that Saw and Hostel may have copied it in some ways. It didn't get a U.S. release when it came out, and I've never understood why---maybe because it had no big names to carry it at the time. The unknown cast was pretty good,tough, and the film did a good job or creeping one out out simply by using security cameras, and the viewer never knowing exactly who was watching all the people in the house throughout said film.
