Has anyone seen "The Devil's Backbone"?
I was thinking of ordering this one next week. It's being released in region 2. I've read some reviews but don't know anyone who has actually seen it.....

I saw it at the theater a couple months ago.
The movie is a ghost story set at a remote Spanish orphanage during the Spanish civil war of the 1930s. Mild spoiler and parental warning:
Although I liked the movie, I haven't decided if it's purchase worthy yet.

I saw it in the theater too, and it was an okay, entertaining, well visualized/directed movie... BUT... The story, scares, and suspense were extremely mild, so I'm in no rush to own it.
