Positive Experience/Entertaining?? Definitely! Creepy, cool, low-budget atmosphere made it seem very realistic and possible.
Technically any good? While there were a couple of shots that seemed particularly low budget (one dead body and a model shot) over all the film does a great job of keeping us guessing as to what’s going on and what will happen next. Great acting from the two leads, too.
How did it leave me feeling? In awe–very cool ending and it works perfectly with the rest of the film. I wish more films were made as well as this one.
Final Rating? SIYL (It’s an end of the world story, so it may be a little disturbing and there is nudity (female and male).
Pick this movie up on VHS in the US from Amazon.com or Region 2 DVD from Amazon.co.uk. (They will ship to the US–just make sure you have a multi-region DVD player!)
