The film is visually stunning in many scenes with a haunting soundtrack and the main actress does a great job throughout. However, the storyline is flawed and confusing and I didn't find it scary. Why did the ghost kill an innocent child? And why would it play "hangman" before killing when it could just kill at will? How does looking at the sun during an eclipse cause your eyes to bleed (or turn undereyes into a meaty pulp)? The ending just didn't make sense... a raped nun gets to keep her child at the nunnery, yet after an accident (that she can't see, yet somehow knows her child is dead and somehow has a rope and knows how to make a noose and somehow can reach higher than the chair allows to attach said noose, etc etc), decides to take revenge on her fellow nuns vs the rapist. Speaking of the accident, how is battling a feverish child in the bathtub supposed to be effective? Was it really so terrible to take her to a doctor?! How was the ghost able to kill an innocent child but needed Narcisa to "open the door" so she could kill the offending nuns? Enough questions... thankfully it was at least stylish and a harmless way to pass the night.
