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 Silence (2010)

Starring: Ulrich Thomsen, Wotan Wilke Morhing, Sebastian Blomberg
Director: Baran bo Odar

Premise:
A young girl is murdered in the exact same spot as another young girl 23 years earlier. The two cases are almost identical causing those responsible for the first crime to reunite.

My Take:
The movie is a gripping drama which deals with the horrible acts of two men (child pornography and child murders) while police detectives try the solve the cases. It is a bleak movie with no happy endings.

Rating: So Good
