More like a more idiotic Carrie

No denying it, minus the religious overtones.
I like that we were more in the dark as to what was going on in the opening third of this film. I also thought the pacing was really good, didn't check the iPhone once during the show.

Carrie, possibly, but also got a definite "Orphan" groove to this also. Niamh and Esther definitely had a few things in common. On the other hand, at least Esther was reasonably sane so to speak.

Awesome!!! Someone else who also saw Orphan, great movie btw.  Insanity is often defined as doing the same thing over and over again expecting different results; according to this, Esther is definitely more insane than Neve. Even though the motives behind Neve's actions are debatable, I think she is still a bit more relatable to Esther cause I don't know how we're supposed to relate to someone who thinks pretending to be a child will make a male authority figure fall head-over-heels in love with them.

Yes, parallels to Carrie are quite obvious. It also reminded me of several other movies that feature evil-children: The Bad Seed, Village of the Damned, The Children, Orphan.
