Decent movie throughout, both endings are terrible.

I thought it turned out to be a pretty mediocre movie. They did a good job of drawing you in to the story in the beginning but from there it just went downhill.

First half of the movie was VERY good. It all started to turn mediocre for me after the zombie trap scene where he was suspended upside down.

have you seen the movie Fine? you might want to rent it first if you haven't. one thing i try to stay away from when getting dvds is blind buying. it's a good way to waste money if you don't know what you're getting.

I wasn't a fan of it. I mean I feel like they portray it to be a lot deeper and better than it really is but if you want a movie that requires little to no thought I suppose it could work.

I'd get wait until next week and get There Will Be Blood.

The only movie I've ever blind bought was The Departed. That turned out to be a good choice. I'm sure its not the norm though.

I read that some people were calling them vampires, but I don't get that at all, other than the whole sunlight thing. More like crazy cannibal monsters to me.

Yeah when they were standing there sleeping, I thought "whoa", but after that I just didn't like the special effects. The movie was good, but yeah the ending kinda blew.
