Trailer Synopsis Cast

Not long after John Chambers and his family arrive at their new home in a small country town of Pennsylvania, John begins to experience sleep paralysis. Lying there paralyzed, trapped within his own nightmare, other-worldly beings visit John. They are entities which exist in the darkest shadows of the night and can only be seen out of the corner of one's eye. These encounters begin to haunt John, transforming to complete terror as he discovers the entities' sole purpose... the abduction of his seven year old son. In the end, John will uncover the town's horrific secret, a portal on his land, and make one last attempt to save his son before the shadow people permanently take him away to their world.

Pregnant mom with the baby crazies. History of miscarriages. Useless clueless husband almost clinically retarded. Other kids who are wise and disbelieved. The town and local cops are in on it. Zillow unaware the house is a possessed pit to hell.

In reading other reviews, it seems this movie is truly a love or hate situation. Frankly, I have no idea how some people could rate this movie so poorly? From a purely entertainment perspective, it's very well done and should hold your attention. A lot of reviewers get too caught up in the technical aspects of a movie, critiquing the acting, directing, etc. I tend to rate movies based purely on their entertainment value, and in that respect, this is well worth a watch. The ending had an especially nice twist.

Not long after John Chambers and his family arrive at their new home in a small country town in Pennsylvania, John begins to experience sleep paralysis. Lying there paralyzed, trapped within his own nightmare, other-worldly beings visit.The highlight of this film is that it stars Brian Krause, who is one of the greats in genre cinema. Between "Sleepwalkers" and "Charmed" he has really made a name for himself. Sure, there were a few duds... like, what the heck is up with "Camel Spiders"? But overall, always a pleasure to see Krause.That being said, this is neither one of his great films or his duds. And he is, of course, quite good. But the film as a whole is just so-so, something to pass the time in October, but nothing that will become a holiday standard or must-see. It just sort of... exists.

Yes, you have to be afraid, you will lose one hour and half of your time watching a low budget horror film with no real story. A town terrified of the shadows yet too stupid to turn on some lights. I saw many stupid films but this one is in the top ten. Only one question remains : who can rate 10 for that crap???
