Really liked this one, good jump moments and brill specail effects, hope they do some decent extras on the effects when its out to buy, defo in the top three films for me along with Hush and the Children.........The hand moments kept reminding me of face huggers from Aliens or is that me being a plank, did anyone else think that?
Yeah but its a dry heat!

Very well done, although I did think it slowed down a bit too much once they were trapped in the petrol station. Call me a softie, but I liked the characters and was glad the "nice" couple survived.
Unfortunately I did nod off for a couple of minutes at one point - tiredness was setting in. I'd like to see the film again, on its own, to fully appreciate it.

It's okay; not too bad. I'd have liked a clearer view of the creatures as they're all shot in a fast-cut hand-held technique and I'm of the school of thought that in a monster movie, you should show the bloomin' monster.
It was around this point in proceedings that I started to waver a little as far as maintaining consciousness was concerned. But only a little.
(And they solved the cellphone problem by the simple method - the bad guy chucks them out of the window. Which is at least better than "no signal".)
