A scary thriller Well thought out but a bit dissappointing because evil endured in the end. Would have loved to see evil fall on it's nose. Storyline good and unpredictable. I liked it very much.
save yourself So, I purchased this movie because I am a big fan of both Jensen Ackles and kitchy horror. What a mistake. The plot makes so little sense that Jensen himself said in an interview that he couldn't make heads or tails out of it. Save your money and rent it if you must see it, but trust me when I tell you that you don't.
Enjoyed it I bought this item because of a review I'd read, and it was exactly like that review. I enjoyed it. Jensen did a good job [as usual].
surprisingly awesome i put off seeing this movie for months for two reasons: 1) bad reviews and 2) i don't do horror flicks, and this one was supposed to be pretty bad.
in short, i am really, really sorry i waited.
the reason i finally rented the movie (and now i've just ordered a copy for my very own) was because of the supernatural hiatus for 3 wks. this september between the final airing of the summer re-runs and the beginning of the new season.
i needed a jensen fix, in a pretty bad way.
in short, the movie was refreshing, maybe because i wasn't expecting much. jensen's acting is superb, as expected, but i was surprised and pleased to see him playing a part that, while there are obvious similarities to the show supernatural, is very unlike the character he plays, dean. jake gray is much more like *sam.*
i highly recommend the movie. jensen's father, alan ackles, plays his father in the movie, and their scenes are quietly riveting. maybe i have just come to expect deep, heartfelt acting from this talented family, and i was not disappointed. i found jake's relationship with his troubled friends, especially the girl dakota, to be caring and supportive. the passion he brings to the part of jake is notable also because it is difficult to picture anyone else doing as well in this role, with the possible exception of ed norton.
i give it a well-deserved 5 stars --again, more because i was so pleasantly surprised, and the horror scenes, while pretty gruesome, did not detract from the overall story.
It was Just OK I bought this movie after seeing Jensen Ackles in supernatural (which was actually better) season and my baby and I got hooked, we can't wait for season 2 to come out on DVD, because after watching this we wanted to know what happened afterwards as it left us at the edge of our seats. I didn't expect much because it was somewhat cheesy but still not a bad movie to watch. When I heard the mentioning of Pathfinder, I actually watched the movie Pathfinder (good movie btw) a week later of course two different movies altogether but this was just OK.
