  • This little flick took me back to my childhood and all those creepy monster stories I use to hear. The basic plot is simple; A group of four friends, which include a brother and sister, are on their way late at night to another friends house to be in a wedding the following day. Of course the car breaks down and they end up at a creepy old farm where the inhabitants have...well I wont spoil that here. What happens next is a night of horror in what turns into a farm of horrors. What I liked about this is the creepy atmosphere that the director builds up and its cool 70's like vibe. If it weren't for the mention of and use of a cell phone, the setting could easily have taken place in 1975 or 76. The director makes you suspicious of every sound and shadow and all the actors do a fine job of acting scared. The way to describe this movie is that its somewhat of a cross between "BlairWitch Project meets Night of the living dead meets Nightwing meets Night Gallery". I enjoyed it and was creeped out through most of it. This is low budget horror fun and should be enjoyed that way. My only pet peeve was that none of the characters really questioned why what was happening was happening and the director didn't even try and explain the reasons behind what was happening. But thats minor and forgiven because I did enjoy the movie and sometimes not knowing the "why's" can leave things up for the imagination. God forbid we should try and use it every now and then. My advice...Make some popcorn, turn off the lights, and enjoy!!
