Buffronioc One of the wrost movies I have ever seen

ChampDavSlim The acting is good, and the firecracker script has some excellent ideas.

Claire Dunne One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.

Matylda Swan It is a whirlwind of delight --- attractive actors, stunning couture, spectacular sets and outrageous parties.

bark2287 I'm pretty sure that a full 2/3 of this script was just the word "Emma".... Is that a spoiler? I don't think that's a spoiler. If anything, it's the only thing this movie has going for it. I want to say it's the acting that's miserable, but it's probably the writing and the directing as well. The monster is uninspired, the pacing is acidic, and.... (is this five lines yet?)OK, I've already spent more time on this review than the movie deserves. You can do better! Somewhere out there is paint that is drying! Go watch that!

view_and_review Before I tell you what this movie was let me tell you what it wasn't. It wasn't scary, it wasn't a horror, it wasn't suspenseful, it wasn't thrilling, it wasn't intriguing, and it wasn't good. I didn't know it was possible to feel the complete apathy I felt watching this.Here's what it was: it was terrible. Mind bogglingly terrible.I know that movies have their clichés, I get it, but this movie didn't even remain consistent with the rules it established. A poor CGI, fire mouthed, tree limbed beast is killing all the Islanders. Gauging the corpses everywhere it is a pretty efficient killer--well until three clueless sisters come along, then it becomes a stalking, creeping killer. The type of killer that gives its prey plenty of time to run, hide or devise a plan. The type of killer that's easily distracted by other prey simply because it's on the screen. I was simply amazed at the CGI monster's ability to make this movie last 85 minutes. It truly knew that it was on screen and it milked it for all it was worth. It stopped and posed elaborately. It growled and roared and screamed. It showed a full array of monster emotion thereby giving it credibility. Sadly, I don't think it will get a star on the Monster Walk of Fame. It's still no Blob, Alien, Predator, Pennywise or just about every other film creature. In fact it was just lame.

Chris Garland You know one day they'll find a way to write a horror movie that doesn't revolve around stupid people. I have a bad feeling about this. Nope let's do it anyway. We should stay here and survive. Nope lets go out and track down someone we know is as good as dead. Please be quiet, it'll hear us. Nope, let's keep yelling. Let's completely ignore every warning put in front of us and go blindly into danger. No characters deserved death as much as these sisters. If that's what you could call them, I guess you can, since they were written way, I guess you have to. Please stop screaming and being as loud as possible. This just drove me crazy. they couldn't have died fast enough. Terrible, terrible film. Watch at your own risk. Still better than the Poltergeist remake.

GL84 Trying to get over a deep family tragedy, sisters visiting their aunt on a deserted island find a local legend about a demonic creature has come to like and stalking the island forcing them to get away before it consumes them as well. This here was quite the impressive and highly enjoyable effort. What really sets this one going is the strong atmosphere found throughout here, which is based quite highly on the setting here. Utilizing the deserted, isolated island setting the best, possible resource here of the utterly impenetrable wall of trees creating a spooky feeling here even before the oncoming storm hits, while the slow-building mystery here with the blank island and continual stranded nature here create an eerie setting here for which the insertion of the creature makes for a great time here. The appearance and powers of the creature are quite nice as the body being composed of tree roots and moss conjoined with supernatural fire bleeding through its eyes and mouth as well as the means of which it appears to teleport itself around to kill its victims which makes for a wholly impressive creature. These here give this a strong boost to the film by then making the action here incredibly fun and exciting, as the opening attack in the forest starts this off nicely, the house attack is outstanding with the arguing distraction letting the crashing body through the front door and the root-fingers grabbing readily delivering stolid shocks and the big confrontation in the deserted town is highly spectacular. The mangled, bloody bodies left laying in the street, the eerie quite and the encounters within here from the shopping mart and the alleyway from the diner against the creature are so much fun here that they keep this going along so well with the fellow survivors getting involved that there's plenty to fully enjoy here. The battle at the sheriffs' station manages to get some really great times as well as it stalks them through the deserted station and readily makes for some decent scares along with the fun kills. The finale, which is so much fun in the forest battles throughout here that range from the absolutely spectacular search here for their missing sister stuck in the sacrificial lair where they rescue the other abducted victim, the attempts to hide in the forest are fine and there's a logical lead-in to the fantastic stalking in the corridors of the power plant where there's a large number of high-end suspense scenes here that really make for quite the chilling time here getting in the fire action of it chasing them around in such a creepy location. These here give this one quite the utterly impressive effort here than it manages to overcome the few minor flaws on display. The one main one here, which shouldn't be much of a surprise here as the CGI for the creature doesn't come close to realistic or believable, as this one doesn't really offer any surprises here. the only other weird part here is the decision here to waste the time searching for the daughter in the woods at the beginning, as the extensive amount of time here is in direct violation of hat was told to them by the ferry driver that halts the whole scene, truly making it seem curious over the inclusion here when other scenes set up her story better. Otherwise, this one was highly enjoyable. Rated Unrated/R: Graphic Violence and Language.
