Brilliant concept for a horror. As good as it gets.
Problem is the direction is TV chick-scare standard, the acting is ordinary, and the music is overblown and intrusive.
The surveillance camera scene in the bedroom is crucial and should be blood freezing. But the direction is so poor that, even though we're shown what happened, we also have to be told what happened. And all the other chills are delivered in '80s clichés with du-du-duuh music. Also there's an unnecessary explanation flashback in the doctor's story.
Even so, the final sequence is eye opening. Only to be ruined by the ridiculous delivery of the line that gives the title to the movie.
What a waste. I guess the author is kicking himself for signing away the rights to this production team. I'm going to check out his novels - interesting character.

Really clever, fun, and original!
This film was a pleasant surprise! It keeps you wondering throughout the initial half, and delivers deftly conceived twists as the story progresses. Of course, like any film that deals with extraordinary phenomena, you have to be willing to suspend your incredulity for the sake of entertainment. The acting is good, and the production value is decent for a DtDVD film. I won't do any spoilers, since most of the entertainment value is derived from keeping the audience guessing about what's going on.
Just don't give up on this one early on when things don't seem to make sense.
Enjoy!
IT'S WHAT HE DOES
Josh (Matt Passmore) and Sarah (Katie Walder) are a young couple with issues but appear to be getting by. Dale (Katie Walder) is our greasy haired social outcast who moves into the neighborhood and Sarah' life is turned upside down with weird night terrors. She acquires information she should take to the police, but doesn't and there is a communications breakdown among our couple.
I liked the unique idea of the film , but they made it a mystery much of the way through when I believe a film from Dale's point of view would have been less mysterious but far more entertaining...maybe next time.
The film is low budget with too few characters. The dialogue needed creativity. Okay film to watch if it is cheap enough.
Parental Guide: F-bomb. Off screen rape. No nudity.
