It is said in some other review here: "People who rate this movie anything lower than 5, are obviously not taking their review seriously." My rating is 1, so I'm obviously one of those people. You were warned.

This flick is just not good in any department. Story, dialogs and acting just mediocre at best. The characters are not likable. Their back stories (if any) are cliched and dull.

Avoid this one at all costs. Honestly, when was the last time you've watched a decent horror with a rating around 5? With some exception for those misunderstood "masterpieces" for the 80's... *this is just a filler to get to the min required chars*

Common, apples with apples, please. Compared to the garbage being released these days, this film really stands out.

And, I think, the comparison with M Night can be seen as a compliment. It's an original film done by a creative director. The production and cinematography are outstanding. It's a balanced mix of sci fi, horror and a western. It's not a perfect movie, but a very good one.

It was a pleasure to see Michael Wincott in a major production.

The chimp story (along with the protagonist familiarity with horses) is the key to explain the approach and the choices to the problem on hands. Makes sense for me.

9/10.
