Whoever witnesses someone else’s death at the hands of the entity becomes its next victim to be driven to suicide.The film – buoyed by a viral promotional campaign – turned out to be a surprise hit, with early viewers sharing positive reactions.

Others called it the best horror film of that year, while others acknowledged that while it had elements of past horror films in it, it was able to “create its own paradigm”, and was praised for its originality.
