The Goonies meets The X Files

Rating: 8/10 (15 June 2011)

It takes place in the summer of 1979, where a couple of kids are trying to make a horror movie,these kids are 13 - 14 years old. One night while filming at a train station, they discover a train wreck, and they manage to escape without any injuries. But soon find something on the train has escaped, and that something is not human.
A pretty mixture of coming of age and sci-fi thriller. It pulls out the laughs and thrills, and blends it all together perfectly. The kids here are joyful to watch, especially Elle Fanning who really comes into her own, not just to be thought of has Dakotas younger sister. Kyle Chandler(Early Edition, Friday Night Lights) was good as the sheriff and the father of one of the kids. So was Ron Eldard(Black Hawk Down, Ghost Ship) is also good has Fannings disgruntled father. Let not forget the effects are also good too.
