Perfect cast and a good story

Disturbing yet enthralling

n my opinion it was a great movie with some interesting elements, even though having some plot holes and the ending probably was just too messy and crammed together, but still fun to watch and not your casual movie that is similar to all other ones.

A lot of perfectly good film show their cards early, establish a unique premise and let the audience explore a topic at a leisurely pace, without much in terms of surprise. this film is not one of those films.

OK, it does sort of remind you of The Shining, and you can find bits of other films here, but are there any truly new ideas today? Very few, I am afraid, so let's see what Sebastian Niemann does in his first feature film. He won an award for his first film, a short.I thought that Amanda Plummer (Pulp Fiction, The Fisher King) did a really good job as someone who was slowly going crazy with those daily reminders of her impending death.Sean Pertwee (Equilibrium, Renaissance) did an excellent job of channeling Jack Nicholson.The rest of the cast was support, and there was, of course, the requisite special effects to give the film a great ending. It seemed to drag in the middle, but you didn't dare leave until you saw what was going to happen.I have to say that I thought this was a British film when Pertwee said he "...needed to take a fag break." I was surprised that it was German. I don't remember fags in Germany.

I bought this movie the other night from Blockbuster and I started watching it at around two in the morning. This is a great movie to watch late at night when all the lights are out. It actually scared me at some of the parts of the film.*POSSIBLE SPOILERS* Ellen (Amanda Plummer) is having disturbing visions of her own death. And she soon discovers that she only has seven days left to live. This movie reminded me in a way of THE SHINING. Maybe because the husband was writing a book, went crazy whenever his wife bothered him while he was writing and because he was the bad guy. Who knows. Just little things like that. 7 DAYS TO LIVE is a good movie to watch late at night. Period. If you're looking for something different, don't see it. But if you want a good rip-off late night movie, then this is the one. For a movie that didn't have a run in theaters, this one was pretty good........4/5.

After watching such overrated horror movies like "The Blair Witch Project","Scream" or "The Sixth Sense" finally here is the film which really delivers the goods.Of course it's quite similar to "The Shining"(1980),but honestly I don't care.The atmosphere is really creepy,the acting is excellent and the ending literally blew me away(I love that Fulciesque zombies in the basement)!There is no gore-just a well-constructed mystery that is best viewed late at night.Check out this truly eerie film!

We thought this was a pretty good movie except it's very similar to The Shining. It didn't have the "hollywood polish" which we liked. It gave an extra "edge" to it. We really like Amanda Plummer and don't see her often enough. The story line had some jumps in it that required suspended disbelief to get over some problems that were not really resolved if you care about that level of perfection.
