Over before it even gets started

Rating: 5/10 (15 December 2007)

I would rate this movie as so-so. The creatures aren't scary, except for one scene where they are grouped together in the dark and you can only see their backs. This is our first shot of them and it was a pretty creepy moment. The story just isn't really very compelling. I looked at my watch after having been in the movie for a while and I couldn't believe there was only 20 minutes left to go in it. I was like, 'huh?' There is just no really interesting arc to the story at all. Two characters, a mother and son, are introduced late in the movie and we hardly get to know them. The boy doesn't say a single word while on screen. Definitely a screenplay that wasn't ready for prime time in my opinion.
