    Actually pretty good. Haiti is crazy and scary. Based on a true story makes it even crazier. The front cover needs to be better so it doesn't look like a $500 budget vampire movie. For those who played Grand Theft Auto, Vice City, you'll find that this movie contains the quote "I want to hear you scream!" which is something the Haitian characters say in the game.

    One of those strange movies that mixes a few facts with a whole lot of fiction. Definitely will make you not want to take a vacation anywhere tropical. For those looking for zombies, their not in here.

    Decent Wes Craven film about a Harvard researcher (Bill Pullman in one of his many bland roles) that travels to Haiti to obtain some special voodoo powder that has the ability to make one look dead for a couple of weeks. There are some really interesting things about this film, and Craven goes the extra mile by making it pretty authentic with the locations and culture, but the film drags far too much, with the exception of the pretty action-packed climax of the film. I admire Craven for going into different horror territory and making such a unique film, but overall, it was pretty boring.

    A movie with a bit of a creepy vibe to it, but also has a bit of some silliniess to it as well. Pretty good cast for this movie though.

    Creepy and hallucinatory. Not your typical horror flick, but vintage Craven--smart examination of the things that scare us.

    This was actually based on a true story! The secret drug they use to induce seemingly death coma comes from a blowfish. This is still happening in some areas of the country.
