Plot so thin, it passes unnoticed.

What a freaking movie. So many twists and turns. Absolutely intense from start to finish.

All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

A mysterious white van travels through a small Indiana town and at night it blasts residents with high frequency sound waves that make some residents go crazy. Catching onto the strange things happening are TV repairman Bodecker (J.J. Huckin) and factory worker Katie (Amy Paliganoff), who is seemingly immune to the blasts. Tharpe's second feature film is a decidedly measured dose of small town paranoia that reminds me of Romero's THE CRAZIES (1973). One of the great things about the film is the viewer is never privy to who is behind these small town high frequency attacks. Opening and closing bits imply the U.S. government, but viewers are never given answers. That along with some genuine surprises and a few really creepy scenes made this enjoyable for me. It is very leisurely paced. So much so that Ti West would scream, "Pick up the pace!" Once again, Tharpe captures a small Midwestern town perfectly. There are also some nice recurring shot motifs going on.

This movie is over 100 minutes of boring. Almost nothing happens for the first hour and the viewer is basically treated to "hey, here's life in a small town where people don't do cell phones, internet, or cable TV, isn't that neat?"The actors aren't bad, but they can't overcome a serious lack of script or story telling. It's literally like a camera rolling through a small scenic town for an hour. Oh yeah, there's a slightly spooky van driving through town that nobody seems to notice or care about except for a couple of people. But honestly, nothing really happens and after an hour and ten minutes of this you'll start to realize that no matter how cool the ending could possibly be, it can't justify the slow, agonizing pace of the film. The basic story could be told, even with all the slow building tension you'd ever want, inside of 35 to 40 minutes. There's just not enough meat to the script as it was put onto film to justify an hour and forty minute long movie. It fell apart. I don't bore easily, but I almost couldn't get through this plodding piece of ca-ca. And now, I'm going back to the video store and demanding my money back. And I will make sure to remember never to watch another Tyler Tharpe film ever again, if I can. Unless someone can promise me he's improved his editing skills immensely.

I give it a half n half because despite the great acting and atmospherics, I kinda felt put off. I mean, that rural town and it's people were NICE. There were no bad people who you felt should "Get whacked". No Philandering husband. No venal prostitutes. No crooked sheriff. Just hardworking, ordinary likable folks. So the ending just left me angry and unhappy and puzzled. If you like monsters or monstrous people and events like Texas Chainsaw Massacre, you may like this. But if you don't like hopeless secret governmental conspiracy plots, the movie may leave you with a bad taste.

This is the way horror oughta be! Reminiscent of the style of horror movies done in the early 1970s such as the original "The Hills Have Eyes", this eerie, disturbingly-realistic portrait of a secret government experiment performed on an average small American town and its unwitting townsfolk will have you peering out your window at any suspicious vehicle lurking about. With a relatively unknown cast and an obvious shoestring budget, the director of this movie knows what it takes to creatively construct a sinister atmosphere within an everyday, common setting and hold your attention. The acting is well above-average for such an inexperienced cast and they are able to pull their roles off most convincingly. Shot in northern Indiana, the bleak winter landscapes add an unsettling feel to the overall mood. At the risk of letting any spoilers out of the bag, let's just say I was mesmerized throughout the first 3/4 of the film and found myself jumping at every little noise. While the last 1/4 of the movie does end up relying on cheap special effects, the majority of the film is very creepy and sure to satisfy most sci-fi/horror buffs. 8 stars.
