Title: Polarising films: Night Skies (2007) Post by: BakuryuuTyranno on May 17, 2012, 01:38:38 PM Title: Night Skies
Polarising status: Among the horror community, it was given a good review on the since closed "Slasherpool" which I'd considered possibly the best horror review site. Its IMDb is close to average (4.8/10)* as is its Amazon rating (3.5/5) Description: Young adults meet aliens, although more atmospheric than many similar films and less reliant on gratuitous gore and body count Notes: Its among the first horror films that I lay awake at night thinking about. Definitely disturbed me. I'd consider it the best movie of the year 2007**, then I remember that's when I watched "Kairo", which I'd consider amongst the three top horror films of the millenium. Oops. * - I consider the IMDb rating of any (non-science fiction) film that was broadcast over the Sci-Fi channel to be lower due to biased people - I'm convinced a percentage of IMDb'ers auto-rate non-sci-fi films broadcast over that channel 1/10 ** - "The Mist" was delayed until '08 in the UK, while "The Last Winter" was similarly delayed Title: Re: Polarising films: Night Skies (2007) Post by: claws on May 17, 2012, 01:54:26 PM Quote Notes: Its among the first horror films that I lay awake at night thinking about. Definitely disturbed me. That's because the movie recycled the best parts from Fire In The Sky (1993) :teddyr: That said, I still enjoy Night Skies for what it is. Fun budget sci-fi horror. |
