8/10
Tight little cast!
3 May 2012
The comparison has been made: this movie is like The Mist! And, I agree.

I loved The Mist and I love this. The Mist was a significantly more expensive movie but the special effects were great and there was a lot of character interaction. This movie is very small but there are still great dynamics between the main characters.

One of the major differences in the story, though, is the relative lack of exposition. Didn't you want to know what the messages were about, whether these are real mysteries instead of pure fiction? I did. But, I didn't get a chance to write down the name of the thing allegedly leaving the message, and so haven't followed up on it yet.

The feeling I had watching the movie was that I was watching one of the writers of The Outer Limits' short stories put into a feature-length film. Sadly, the DVD I purchased didn't have more in the extras to help us out.
