This is a remake of an urban legend. Are the scripts supposed to be original? Overall, nice remake.

I liked this film. Well shot and acted. I think I know the area in Astoria where this was filmed. I enjoyed the ending very much. Good Job.

Thought provoking, well acted and the Director is a genius. Thanks for the link Anitra, the music was also engaging.

Nice little twist at the end, but the acting was horrendous. Especially the younger woman’s performance. She’s too conscious of the camera, and never in the moment. It’s hard to believe the reality of the moments depicted. With some decent actors, this would have been better.

There was a similar scene like this in “City Slickers.” Daniel Stern was standing in line at a fast food restaurant when this old lady asked she could call him “son” and so on and so on
