September 30, 2009I liked it. It?s not as good as the 2 before it but Abel Ferrara still does well! The little kid getting kicked out the chopper is always fun!

July 5, 2009I threw this on expecting shitty, disposable horror, something to serve as background noise while I thought about my life or whatever. To my surprise I actually found myself very involved - this is a sleek, beautifully filmed thriller that obviously earned a poor reputation follo...( read more)

December 3, 2008Not as creepy as Kaufman's remake, but not as bad as some would tell you. Most men would probably fail the naked Gabrielle Anwar test.

August 30, 2009Rewatched this last night, hence the re-review. Sadly it's not as good as my fragile mind remembers, it's a slow burner before we get any pod people action and then..... well that's about it really. Some good tense scenes to start off with but not much else really, it's worth a w...( read more)
