Did anyone else really like this?


I thought this was really good. It was a horror movie, but not a typiucal one. It wasn't bloody, but just a good movie. It was a little confusing, but I enjoyed it. Did anyone else?

Very good, as long as you're not fascinated by rivers of blood / ketchup. But unfortunately we seem to be in the minority. That's why movies like this appear more and more rarely.

Or maybe it is the authors' fault, they are not capable of making movies like this, so they make endless bloodful and brainless movies making them a fashion and educating a whole generation to find them desirable. And with such an audience they do not need any effort to make sequels of remakes of rip-offs which we can see in theatres last (too many) years.

Yes, I did. I was really creeped-out watching this alone in the dark.

Yeah, it had a good scenery and a good plot (somewhat.) The ending is the only thing I don't really like.

Some people count sheep. Doesn't work with AlwaysCool, just gets him excited.

imdb seems to have deleted hundreds of threads on this one, but one that will interest you is that no neutron bomb was yet in existence at the time claimed on the memorial at ground zero. Writer ignorance, or a clue that the ufo is the correct explanation???...

I really liked it except for the ending

Dear Warden, You were right. Salvation lies within.

I was a little disappointed with the ending, but I really enjoyed the movie. Great suspense and great atmosphere. Pretty good acting too.

When they come across the site about the bomb and then the mother finds all those things in the cave and the father finds the cars, I thought it was a rip-off of 'The Hills Have Eyes' and I was disappointed, but the ending surprised me and while I wasn't exactly happy with it, the myriad of possible explanations actually work in its favor.

I didn't realize until later that 'The Hills Have Eyes' remake actually came out four years after this and I haven't seen the original, so I'm not sure if there are similar scenes in the original or the remake actually copied a bit from this film.
