Has anyone seen this film? I ask because I thought that it was without a doubt one of the best films I have seen in a long long time. It had me on the edge of my seat through-out the film and at points it really got my heart racing. The soundtrack to accompany it, I thought, was a perfect selection. The gripping music really made the atmosphere more intense and made it even more enjoyable and yet still scary. For me the best part was the ending, so touching and moving.

It was so intense I now cannot sleep, sounds weird I know but its just one of those films that leave you in shock for a while. It certainly has for me...

Your thoughts and opinions?
 
Rather frustrating throughout! The acting wasn't great, and that Christian woman was incredibly annoying!

The ending was fantastic though :D
 
A movie full of "television" actors. Television plot, production etc.

If it was on tele as a mini series I would have enjoyed it more, as a movie it didn't quite cut it for me.

Really? Written and directed by the bloke who wrote and directed The Green Mile and Shawshank Redemption. Can't get much better than that?

I thought it was a fantastic movie and as far as horror films go, it was probably one of the best I've seen. And the ending was just... :eek:
 
Looking forward to this film. Anyone know any official release dates? IMBD draws a blank although a search hints not until April.
 
The ending was pretty shocking, didn't think he'd actually do it. I wonder what the message was though; that he had no faith?

Hard to say what would happen in real life if that really did happen, but the thought of some religious nut actually gaining influence like that was terrifying ... more so than than the actual creatures! :eek:

That said, I felt all fuzzy inside when she got dealt with, lol. :D

I'm sure I have seen something like this before? With the same sort of ending? Is this a remake? Could I have see the mist, and this is similar? Can't remember all the details of the older movie, but felt the ending was very de-jar-vu
 
Ahhh knew I knew it from somwhere - Skeleton Crew - that brings back memories.

Cheers, I've read a few reviews and it just reminded me so much of The Fog.

Might give it a whirl then.
 
For the teeny weeny budget it had it's a very good film. At first I thought it was a JC's The Fog clone but it wasn't. It felt like Cloverfield in a way, without the lame shakycam. If you liked The Fog then you'll probably appreciate this, I know I did despite the relatively unknown actors.
 
Watched this last night.

LOVED it, really good, some great acting and some brilliant scenes.

HATED the ending, absolute rubbish.

That's how I felt, really didn't like the ending. Clever, twisted or what, it just left me feeling that I didn't enjoy the film, which I did.
