~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.

The Bay (2012)

Starring: Kether Donohue, Kristen Connolly
Director: Barry Levison

Premise:
A small, coastal town is over ran by an infectious parasite.

My Take:
A solid eco-horror flick provides realistic scares. The documentary style helps add to the narrative as never seems too obtrusive thanks to veteran director Levison's masterful skills. The script does have a few holes in it, which works against it. Regardless, I felt satisfied by the time credits roll.

Rating: In the middle
