4.0 out of 5 stars Creepy and Unique, July 10, 2009

This review is from: Plague Town (DVD)

First I have to say that I wasn't bored while watching "Plague Town" it held my interest and had some very creepy,scary moments in it.
It was reminiscent of "Wicked Little Things "from the first batch of 8 films to die for.
"Plague Town" was somewhat original but it's not like kids haven't been used many times in the past to frighten or shock audiences, a few good examples being "The Bad Seed","The Good Son" and "Who Can Kill a Child",It's the brutality and shock value of using something that personifies innocence,hope and goodness that gives shock value to a film like this and others that portray children as "monsters".
The film used very dim lighting in places and that didn't really bother me because it lent to the dark feel of the film.There were quite a few grisly scenes but they let you see just enough to let you know what happened and just enough to let you're imagination run wild as well.
The character of Rosemary was particularly creepy and well played.Her bug eyed look very disturbing.
all in all I would recommend it to a horror slasher fan.
It's interesting and somewhat unique but I still like "The Children" better as far as killer kid flicks go.

3.0 out of 5 stars A fresh retelling of the maniacs in the woods story, November 8, 2009

This review is from: Plague Town (DVD)

I enjoyed this movie. In short, a family is on a holiday-like event in (presumably) Britain, then get stranded only to find themselves hunted by a rather large extended family of mutated humans. The movie does a good job of maintaining an eerie mood throughout, with good suspense and well crafted horror scenes. The advertised story speaks of substantial gore, but I didn't find it that way. I am not a particular fan of gore, and found the amount shown generally agreeable and not gore for gore's sake. The acting was pretty good, and the production values high. The film was, however, shot (at least the day scenes) with a blue filter, which takes a particular skill level to employ effectively. Overall, a worthy rental.

2.0 out of 5 stars Rent first..., October 26, 2009

Im glad I did! It Wasn't really a horrible way to kill time, but the acting was just atrocious and that was kinda hard to sit through. There were a few creepy parts involving the "eye" girl, but there really was not a whole lot of explanation for what the hell was going on. I love a good independant horror flick as much as the next guy, but this was pretty bad. Rent first before you decide to make your purchase.
