Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.

The joyful confection is coated in a sparkly gloss, bright enough to gleam from the darkest, most cynical corners.

The best films of this genre always show a path and provide a takeaway for being a better person.

One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.

I quite liked the premise of this film where the main character is under house arrest. The acting wasn't too bad, especially Famke Janssen. However, the film had way too many flaws for me to take it seriously and I am surprised by all the favourable reviews: The ghost was just terrible quality cgi and way too physical. It could do all sorts of things, had no subtlety and would surely have killed her long ago if that's what it wanted to do. She gave in and invited the grocery boy in for sex when she knew she was putting his life at serious risk. What person would do that?! The copper fluctuated too much in his attitude towards her..one minute hating her for killing his best friend, the next trying to exonerate her..and why would he be allowed to just camp outside her door all the time? And he would have heard the screams and been in there way before she had time to clean up so well and hide the boy's body. She realised she had to get rid of all the things connected with her husband, threw her wedding ring stupidly down the garbage disposal..putting her hand in when she knew her husband's ghost was around..and yet then still put the ring back on!!? And she stayed in the house stubbornly even though she was getting attacked all the time when if she had just run away, yes she may have gone back to prison but at least she'd have been safe?! She was in the raging fire in the cellar for ages at the end and would have died from smoke inhalation long before but wasn't even coughing!!? The bit when the ghost attacks the grocery boy was done quite well (though I still felt Marnie was at fault) but for me the whole film was let down by way too many plot holes and an angry, violent but not very ghostly or scary ghost.

I didn't hate this movie. I didn't hate it neither, but at least it was kinda interesting to the end. The plot was really interesting and it ran more or less smoothly from the beginning to the end. There wasn't any scenes that felt unnecessary or forced, which is always a plus in any kind of movie. The acting was great; Cannavale is always professional, though he does seem to play the cop part A LOT. Janssen is another hardcore pro and Westwick was a refreshing add. The reason why I gave this 6/10, are the minuses: unclear motives, too convenient plot holes, cliché horror effects and the crappy ghost. I wish there was more "proof" of how awful the husband really was, maybe flashbacks of some sort. I kept thinking the movie ends in at a reveal that the wife is exposed as a horrible bitch that killed her husband for fun and I really didn't need that. Convenience of the cops showing up however they like and that the neighbors don't hear aaaall the commotion was a bit annoying. In the end it takes the fire brigade forever to show up and Janssen just walks away with the cat without any money without the neighbors realizing it's her, when they clearly know who the cop killer wife is.. Also, I wish the ghost had been a completely unseen, just a force, because this ghost just reminded me of Hollow man and it wasn't scary AT ALL. But, after all of this, the movie did a decent job. I find even some-what likable horror movies so rarely that this was a win for me.

100 Feet starts out well and has a very good performance by Famke Janssen the 1st and 2nd act is pretty good even tho it's not scary or anything the movie benefits from some cool horror elements and the acting was pretty good for the most part. Now the 3rd act is how should i describe it? Awful. The most obvious cgi fires and breaking bones to a person and 2 of the worst deaths ever for a victim and the ghost it self the audience was expecting a big showdown and what it got was a very weak ending that totally ruins the movie because if you're a ghost you at least make sure that you kill the person you're hunting you don't let them throw you a ring and get explode like you're some kind of a mirror. Anyways the movie is fine but it's not scary and the 3rd act sucks!!!

100 Feet (2008) as been one of the dozen movies, I got on my watch list, I saw this last night,I really enjoyed this movie, I did not expect it too be this good,This horror movie is more slow burner, for the first hour or so, so there weren't many scare scene in the movie , they are one or two, very unexpected, at the right moments. The last half hour of the movie really puts everything into at once, there was one scene, that I thought was very nasty and really brutal. The only downside,how they ended it story of the plot, it didn't feel right , that it did not fit in with the rest of the movie.The acting was not bad at all, there were moment they went little over the top with one or two scenes.7 out of 10
