I've rated this movie a 7 because as others said it feels completely new and fresh for the horror genre, something that doesn't happen often in the is genre and is a nice surprise. Most horror movies are low rated even for decent flicks but this one deserves points for originality, new young cast, looks polished on a shoestring budget.

Takes a while to get going but I love the buildup and mythology of the hand. It's a great idea and reminds me of the monkey paw that grants wishes... kinda.

First half is much better than the second half, that hurts so many horror movies. They don't know where to go and end up showing too much which takes away the creep factor.

I'll probably watch the last 20 mins again as I feel like I missed some of it. But it deserves your time if your a hard core horror lover you'll appreciate this for it's originality... and being a nice little movie out of Australia.
