The Rating System

All opinions are my own. We are all different. What I may think is great, you may this terrible. Don't let my opinios stop you from exploring the vast world of horror in all media.

~Mind Blowing: Search for this movie immediately. It can only be described as pure greatness and possible an instant classic.

~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.

~Warning: This movie is a cliched driven slop of familiar territory. Only watch if you're really of fan of this type of material.

~Steaming Pile: The movie is absolute garbage, a complete bore, and not worth the time or effort.

The Darkest Hour (2011)

Starring: Emile Hirsch, Oliva Thurby, Rachel Taylor, Max Minghella
Director: Chris Gorak

Premise:
A group of Americans try to survive Moscow after an alien attack.

My Take:
It's basically a typical Hollywood alien invasion movie. However the nuances in the plot kept me interested for the majority of its running time. Plus I liked the reason why the aliens attack Earth and aliens themselves.

Rating: In the middle (on a good day)
