Critic Reviews

Steve "Uncle Creepy" Barton, Dread Central
The pacing of Solstice drags the viewer to the finish line nearly half asleep ... [it] disappoints with its surprising blandness and heavy-handed mediocrity.

CAST: Elisabeth Harnois, Hilarie Burton, Amanda Seyfried, Shawn Ashmore, Tyler Hoechlin, Matt O'Leary DIRECTED BY: Daniel Myrick SUMMARY: A young girl uncovers a disturbing secret about her twin sister, who committed suicide just a few months before. MY THOUGHTS: This is my second time seeing this movie. Cought it on t.v. again, and still think it's surprisingly good for a t.v. made thriller. Wasn't really scary, but it had some really good twists. It seemed to be going one way and then took a whole different route. Had some good acting in it as well from some actors I really haven't seen in movie's before. Well besides Amanda Seyfried who has been making plenty of movies of late. But for the rest who are fairly unknown to me, they did a pretty good job for being a young cast.

This is a mix of thriller/horror with a few recognizable faces in the cast. Not the film I was expecting it to be, quite similar to What lies beneath, Stir of echoes. If you like those you might enjoy this as well.

It can never get too obvious. Just when I thought the twist would turn one way, it goes completely in a different way..or else i'm losing my knack at it. Not really as gory or scary as I thought it would be but it still had some scenes that made me stifle a giggly scream. I get… More
It can never get too obvious. Just when I thought the twist would turn one way, it goes completely in a different way..or else i'm losing my knack at it. Not really as gory or scary as I thought it would be but it still had some scenes that made me stifle a giggly scream. I get easily scared alright, even if I know what's going to happen next. LOL.
