I guess I hate to admit it but maybe, just maybe, there are no more horror stories to tell, at least nothing original anyway. From here on and forthwith we will be inundated with nothing more than the same ol' same ol' day after day, week after week, month after month, and year after year. The die is cast; film makers in the horror genre have reached an impasse. From here on out we'll probably have more unoriginal offerings like "The Bride." At least the cinematography was pleasing to the eyes, so there's that.
supernatural it is, and pretty psychotic in the hinges, so i do not want to scare away the audience, im just old and grumpy that has pivotal feeling about the genre. this was far too slow so just a 6.

- Quotes
The Photographer: The Russian scientist-chemist, the doctor of medicine Joseph Hamel, speaking at the St. Petersburg Academy of Sciences, reported on the unusual properties of silver halide when deposited on the photographic plate. According to the scientist, the negative was capable of not only capturing the light reflected on it, but also to save something more: energy, which people called the soul. The academic community raised Hamel to laugh, but soon there was a ritual: the dead were photographed with eyes painted over the eyelids. It was believed that this way you could deceive death.
