~So Good: Highly recommended because for one reason or another it stands out above the usual fair. Put the movie on your radar as it wont disappoint.

~In the Middle: The movie is a nothing special, average affair. It may entertain in the short term but it will be easily forgettable in the long haul.

The Dark Hour (2006)

AKA: La Hora Frio

Director: Elio Quiroga

Premise:
A group of survivors attempt to stay alive in their hideout while human infected with a fatal disease and another entity attack them.

My Take:
The movie kept me entertained. The tone is very dark as many in the group are running out of hope. All the characters are fleshed out well and the film keeps good pace. Lots of drama and a little action and a touch gore.
The final scene was a one I never saw coming.

Rating: In the middle
