One of the very, very worst movies I have ever seen.
I'm giving it a 2/10 just because the wife was extremely gorgeous.

I really wish I could have been a writer on this flick. I'd have suggested lines for Ben like this:

"Oh wait, I think I do remember that girl. I think we had sex repeatedly, and then I let my friends gang rape her while I took pictures. Yeah, I'm pretty sure that's the girl. I think."

"And by the way, was that wrong? Should I not have done that?"

I actually thought that twist at the end was good, but the rest of the movie was pretty bad. The storyline was good, but the dialog wasn't the greatest and they didn't build the charcters up very much.

Also, I think they could have made it scarier.

Overall I'd say 6/10

Wow! Can't help thinking that the word 'SPOILER' could have gone in the title somewhere.

I think you missed the point? Obviously the guy didn't think he did anything wrong (which was what the wife realizes in the end - what the ghost wanted her to discover).

She had married a psychopath and didn't even know it.

The ending was the only good thing about this movie. The twist with the rape and the true intent of the spirit trying to warn not kill the wife was quite original.

Completely forgettable and disappointing. 4/10 stars from me.
