Synopsis

Chronically agoraphobic since the day his wife was murdered, Tommy Cowley finds himself terrorized by a gang of syringe-wielding feral children, who are intent on taking his baby daughter. Upon discovering the nightmarish truth surrounding these hooded children, he learns that to be free of his fears, he must finally face the demons of his past and enter the one place he fears the most - the abandoned tower block, known as the Citadel.

bigfrog6 If you like your movies heavy on slow burn buildup with the overall focus on mood, tension and a feeling of dread this one's for you. It definitely has its flaws and at least one gaping plot hole that kind of left me shaking my head but overall I definitely enjoyed this well directed flick. If you like big splodey things, lots of gore, Hollywood fake boobies, bombastic soundtracks and prefer energy drink adrenaline rush pacing you might want to pass.
doctor_ledo I can't believe that some people gave this trash more than 1 star,what is this? where is the story?.Really if there is a degree under zero this film deserve it.This is a vacant story, simply and directly told by Irish writer-director Ciaran Foy. He doesn't try to explain too much, he doesn't depend on special effects and stays just this side of the unbelievable. As Tommy, Aneurin Barnard is very effective. He trembles and sweats with fear, he would seem paranoid if it didn't seem the "demons" weren't really there, and if they hadn't really killed his wife.The priest enlists Tommy in a scheme to destroy the Citadel and send the demons back to the flames of hell Hahhhhhhhhhh Where are these demons? and like the trash movies some things happen ad elevator did not open as usual. Tis film is very boring,no blot and also no acting
atinder This was a really good movie , actually it was a great movie.This movie did not take long to get going and what a way to start a movie. With the pregnant lady , It was nasty not gory, it was nasty as it is a really nasty thing to do.I really like the rest of the movie, as we get to see the father is scared of going out side his house, which gives their movie more of a intense feel to it.You may be thinking this sounds like a another movie called Them. however this movie is far from it, as it is a bit of a plot later in the movie.I don't know if I miss it, I don't think they explained who or what they were.Fantastic acting , and great movie 9/10
gavin6942 An agoraphobic father teams up with a renegade priest to save his daughter from the clutches of a gang of twisted feral children who committed an act of violence against his family years earlier.Although I have to give my congrats to Ireland for making a widely-released horror film in 2012 (the Irish horror scene is not well-known in America)... and although this film seems to have resonated with various people... I just was not one of those people.Honestly, I had a hard time getting into the picture and just sort of felt bored by it all. I am keeping this review at a 5 until I see it a second time (which may never happen). Maybe I just was not in the right mood, though I saw other films today without problems...
