What the fuck comes at night?


You gotta be shitting me. Why did they make this movie? What was the plot all about. What were they afraid of? And what in the bloody comes at night?

reply

what comes at night - tiredness, boredom and pain from watching a blatantly crap attempt at copying John Carpenter's 'The Thing'.

Lol his definitely doesn't give me any wish to see it x)

Well I watched... I think I've seen a horror movie so much not scary at all. There wasn't like a single spooky element. Like you said, a failed attempt to a new approach on The Thing.

Paranoia

It does

Granted, the title was very misleading - it sounds like a monster film.

"Why did they make this movie?"

* To show what it feels like to have to kill someone you love because they got infected
* To show what it might feel like to live in a world where you can't trust anyone.

Not saying it's original or great, most zombie films do this, but I think the concept is pretty obvious.

Ha! I wondered that too. Unless I am forgetting something, the dog comes (back) at night...

Fear, anxiety, paranoia, nightmares and mistrust of your fellow human beings come at night. This was a tense and intelligent film. There was no run of the mill "movie monster" lurking out in the woods. I give it a 7.5/10.

Nightmares and your fears come out at night. I can see this happening if there is some communicable disease that you can't cure. We do not know who opened the red door and how Andrew got inside. It may mean Paul and Sarah won't make it; it's just a matter of time before they get it even though they are safe for now. We do not know who or what got the dog.

That said, I suspect it was Travis who opened the door. He could be the one sleepwalking as he is walking around the house in his dreams. As for the dog, I have no idea. It may have been some animal who was already infected.
