What a weird movie. Full of chills and scares. I was on the edge of my seat. No actors in it I really knew. The main woman looked familiar but...? It's about a woman who goes to Russia in hopes of learning something about her birth mother who she has heard just died. Dopplegangers and ghosts. Oh my. Have you seen it? If not you might want to put this chiller on your list.

Celtice, i haven't seen this movie. Thanks for introducing it here, i will surely watch it soon. Sounds very scary and confusing. But, i like to watch scary movie whenever i have the time. By the way, does Doppleganger really exist in this world? It sounds really weird and confusing.

First off doppleganger is defined as being a ghostly double or counterpart of a living person. They usually signify evil and here is a link to more information:

The title sounds very familiar but I haven't watched a movie with a Doppleganger in it in forever. I remember seeing one a long time ago but I barely remember it...just a scene where the doppleganger ran into the person they were copying. I'll havet o see if I can find it.

It is confusing and does have a rather surprise ending. I found it on Netflix, not sure if Blockbuster will have it or not. Netflix doesn't have a problem with new movies. I get them all the time.

It was one of the After Dark Horror Fest 8 Films to Die For.... one year. I'm not sure which year but ... a lot of really great super creepy films came out of that project. My favorite of the ones I've seen was either Wicked Little Things about a bunch of little kid ghosts who were killed in a mine accident in New England way back when children worked in mines or Penny Dreadful about a girl who is afraid of cars and small spaces because of being in an accident so her therapist straps her into her car and drives her out into the woods where bad things happen (you get no spoilers from me!! 
).
They took a couple of years off from doing the festival, supposedly revamping the festival format but I haven't heard anything since. I also never got a chance to go. They only played it here one year.
