I agree that this would have been a lot better if it weren't for the supernatural elements, which I found kind of sloppy and uninteresting, and instead focused on the main characters' struggle for survival, which I enjoyed a lot more. I loved the beginning of this movie, largely because of the mountain setting, the lead performances, cinematography and score. I think it had the perfect set up for something great, especially with the creepy atmosphere, but I found the ghost elements cheesy, uninteresting and not scary, aside from the introduction of people walking by their car in the dark which was effective.
On the plus side, for a movie made in the mid-2000s I at least appreciate that it did not rely on cheap shock tactics and that is not a torture porn film or a remake of a Japanese horror film.
