She silently shifted through the crowds of fellow students, slinking through like a shadow, and eventually she was at the front of the crowd and stepping through the doors. What was strange, however, was that the doors were kept opened by themselves and not kept open by teachers.

Who cares, I'm doing it anyway: "Jesus, take the wheel/Take this from my hands/'Cause I can't do it on..my...own." Watching this masterful, breathtaking, 90-minute nightmare that Krasinski has created, a horror film we will be praising for a long, long time to come, I may have found a new religion. Clearly some hieroglyphics…

    How humans interact with a place, says more about them than location itself. The idea of place and how people relate to the area around them is an on-going topic of sustainability.
