we live in a time where people are becoming less and less afraid of experimenting with film-making and this is a prime example of it. it is also an excellent monster disaster movie; original and well presented, while almost maintaining an independent feel to it. almost... if it weren't for the big budget look sfx and the ridiculously attractive cast that is. nonetheless, it had me on tender-hooks, remained unpredictable and left enough to the imagination to be genuinely scary.

9/10
