Well, dang I liked it!!
I see that I am one of the only ones though. Hmm, wonder what that says about me? LOL!
I enjoyed it from beginning to end.
I knew there would be a twist but was not sure waht it would be. I really enjoyed it.

If you think of it more of a "descent into madness" type flick rather than "why doesn't this make sense?" it's entertaining. Christine Moss does a great job of looking suitable deranged and where's the harm in that? :) The only thing that bothered me was Trevor's voice - was he monotone or what?
shareI agree I liked it except for the end. The explanation and then the other girl moving in ruined it for me

Elisabeth Moss ??
shareI'm amazed that someone else noticed Trevor's voice! I think his lines were looped in by another actor. He played "Smith" - Samantha's last lover - on "Sex and the City" and the voice is totally different! Maybe it was too soft & sexy for the mics to pick up and they had to get someone else to loop it. You never know. I thought this wasn't a half-bad flick. The "descent into madness" is a good way to look at it. Christine Moss is a very good actress. She can have any kind of career she wants if she keeps going in the direction she's going. Mad Men is marvelous - love it!
shareOverall it wasn't as bad as some people make it out to be. The acting came and went, and I think the story was trying to be smarter than it came out being. It had an interesting premise that has been done before, however the bookends of the piece left one a bit confused. Visually I think the movie was very well done however.
shareThe plot was paper-thin, no doubt. But the special effects, and the direction save this film. It's no AMC top 100, but it's MUCH better then some make this movie out to be.

I LOVED IT! why? Because it was funnnnnnaaaay!
It's in my list of best comedies ever. I'm sorry, I know it's meant to be scary, but I just laughed the whole way through. I love this movie. It cheers me up.

I liked it too. Also my mom and sister liked it too.
shareIt was entertaining in a Lifetime/LMN movie sort of way. I was confused with the ending, though... so was Trevor just a helpless victim in her twisted imagination or was he malevolent ghost that was attached to the house who orchestrated Emma's descent into madness? Questions, questions...

I caught this on Chiller this weekend, and I liked it. I thought it was spooky and entertaining. Believe me, I've seen a lot of crap, but the acting and direction in this movie was a cut above, with the exception of the actor who played Trevor. His voice had a very nasal quality to it. I'd never seen him in anything else, but I'd be interested in seeing if that was his real voice.
I liked it plenty. Just a good old fashioned story about a cursed mirror. As low budget and hokey as it was, I found it plenty more engrossing than many other movies.

I thought the same thing through out the whole movie. This had everything that a Lifetime movie would have. They do in fact show haunted psychological type movies from time to time. I liked it and so did my fiance. No the script wasn't perfect by any means and it did leave in my opinion some questions unanswered.
For those who enjoyed the film here is a interview from Tom Malloyhttp://www.houseofhorrors.com/crypt/pages/interviews/printer_331.shtml Pretty fun read! share
I agree it's not as bad as many say, I'd give it a 6.
