Waste of two hours

What a disappointment. I really wanted to like this movie, but the story just fell so flat. What was Greta's story? Why was she locked in the wall? The movie sets up this really interesting story of the house, and then just drops it.

I realize this is a Lifetime movie, but I've seen some pretty good ones they've put out in the past, like "In Her Mother's Footsteps" and "Big Driver." This one simply lacks any suspense.

You make some good points, they never did explain why she was boarded up in that wall, that would have added to the film. Supposedly she came from Germany to marry, but she had no accent. I guess we're to assume her husband killed her...but why? Still I did like the movie and gave it at 3 out of 5 stars, even with all the stupid typical horror film moves the characters made. I liked the acting and the story had some good points too.
