Reviews
Simple and well acted, it has tension enough to knot the stomach.
It is neither dumb nor smart enough to be fun, and spends way too much time with its boring human characters.
There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.
All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.
