Perfect mix of sci-fi and horror

Rating: Null/10 (7 November 2002)

As far as sci-fi/horror films go, this one works perfectly. If you're a fan of either genre, you cant help but find redeeming qualities in this film. The premise of the movie is scary on so many levels. Although we've all seen familiar material, I would argue that this film presents the material in an original fashion.
Some horror films dont work simply because different things scare different people... which is precisely what makes this film so creepy. The atmosphere, set design and spooky characters make the mood subtly horrifying.
I've read some negative comments about this film. Everyone has their opinion, but I always find it funny to see how some choose to criticize the scientific integrity and realism of science "fiction" movies. The film has some flaws.. but an overall really enjoyable and scary experience.. 8/10
