It does hold the attention for the whole movie.
It jumps from one plot line to the next with little explanation Eventually you realise the movie is over but it hasn't really told a complete story.
The actors manage to carry the movie and keep the attention.
With a better plot, it could have been an amazing movie.
As it is, its passable and the actors are fun to watch.
The Plot is a bit far fetched The sound is ok The Photography is ok The Acting is ok
Its a passable watch

I really wanted to like it because of Iwan Rheon. I loved his character (Ramsay Bolton) in the Game of Thrones. Unfortunately, this film falls flat on its face almost immediately. It wasn't well written, and it was predictable.
More Park Sausages Ramsay!

It's a weird thing to do, showing the audience several things that have nothing to do with the story at all.
First, the stone. With Lucas kept on going about the energy of the stone and the place, I thought something was supposed to happen to the people that's caused by the stone. But nothing ever did. The stone was just symbolic.
Second, the dead foxes. The weird scenes with Adam tried to help the dying fox, Dan mercy-killing the fox, and then a wild fox staring at the house from a distance. I thought something which has something to do with foxes is going to happen in the film. I don't know, maybe The Wickes family members are descendants from foxes spirit or something? But no. Those foxes are just plain animals. Nothing supernatural about them. They were just a distraction.
Third, the Wickes boys. They have a personal vendetta against Lucas. And I thought that they were going to kill Lucas to avenge their father. But no, their intention was only to humiliate Lucas. When one of them finally killed Lucas, it was half self-defense. Not because he wanted to end his life.
Over all, there are so many weird unused factors that the script spouted at the audience. That's just plain weird and stupid. Maybe they needed to fill some time so the movie won't be so short? If that's the case, then it's just pathetic.
