Wow, could only watch that once, 9 out of 10. You can tell it's the director that did Shawshank Redemption and The Green Mile as the film is relentless. It has so many ideas in from The Fog, Survivors, The Thing, HG Wells War of the Worlds and Time Machine, Aliens. If your a parent and watch this film be warned you may need to hug your children at the end. This started off with what I thought might be silly monsters but gets gradually better and the story is so strong that eventually you are overwhelmed by the nihilistic nature of this film and how the mob rules whipped up by religious rhetoric of the local nutter. As one person says put more than 2 people together and people take sides. Wonder if I'll ever watch this again but I'm definitely still thinking about it, damn you King another one that turns the notion it's not your stories but who directs them and rewrites them that makes or breaks your stories, and this director loved the story and was far too good at hitting all the right spots for one of the bleakest bits of sci fi / horror I've seen in a long while. Even in Dawn of the Dead they got to rest after the doors were shut. _________________ http://zombi-blogia.blogspot.co.uk/
