Lucybespro It is a performances centric movie

Livestonth I am only giving this movie a 1 for the great cast, though I can't imagine what any of them were thinking. This movie was horrible

Grimossfer Clever and entertaining enough to recommend even to members of the 1%

Siflutter It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.

Theo Robertson One reason horror movies aren't well regarded amongst critics is down to the fact that in order for the plot to work the characters have to do stupid things like wander around a dark woodland knowing fine well that people have disappeared in that location . In other words logic flies out the window . One other reason for the low regard of this genre is that plots have been done to death and the horror film has lost its lustre down to really rank repetition . SILENT WARNINGS is a case in point As soon as the characters are introduced I let out a very audible sigh . We're introduced to the staple diet of American horror movies - horny teenagers . This a diet that's been dished out to audiences for over 30 years and anyone who once had an appetite for this type of movie must now surely be suffering from a cinematic eating disorder . However at least the story does have some originality in that it doesn't rip off HALLOWEEN . Instead it rips off a couple of other horror/sci-fi classics . Can you guess what they are ? I'll give you a clue . One of them also featured crop circles in a cornfield and starred Mel Gibson while the other is a 1967 Hammer horror movie based on a 1957 BBC play by Nigel Kneale . Even the the title of conjures up images of the Gibson movie and I guess that's why this movie isn't called WARNING SIGNS I will be somewhat merciful in this review and take into account that this is a very cheap direct to DVD film shot in Bulgaria . At least the director has picked a location that resembles the American Mid West . Strange to think that both Stephen Baldwin and Billy Zane were once relatively well known prolific actors but I can't recall the last time either appeared in a fairly successful movie and I doubt if SILENT WARNINGS made any casting directors sit up and take notice . The rest of the cast are alright in rather clichéd roles and if you're in to horror or SF movies then you may find this movie a harmless enough time waster

guilfisher-1 Why the likes of Billy Zane and Stephen Baldwin would do this silly 2003 film beats me. I have great respect for their body of work and to see them romp through this nonsense was hard to take. Finally gave up watching it on TV. Directed by Christian McIntire from a screenplay by Bill Lundy adapted from a book by Kevin Gendreau, it has every aspect of a very good film. The camera work was excellent and some of the shots set the mood beautifully. So why did I find this so bad? Seeing the actual aliens was a big let down. A bad choice. Like that famous classic CAT PEOPLE, not seeing them would have made it more frightening. Then there was the supporting cast; The three girls played by Callie De Fabry, Michelle Borth and Kim Onosch were just plain awful. Screaming was just about the stretch of their acting. Borth being the worst of the lot. I couldn't wait for them to be taken by the aliens just to shut them up. The boys were not that good either, although had some finer moments than their mates. Layne Vassimer, Stephen Fox and Maurice Hall all played their roles and were on their marks but lacked a lot of believability. What I found the most objectionable was when we are reaching the climax with aliens popping out from everywhere, two couples decide to take the time to do their kissing scenes. Come on. In face of danger, they begin to neck? Not really. I give this loser a one in respect to the presence of Baldwin and Zane and a director I feel could do better work.

sldub I don't understand why everyone keeps p***ing on this film. Not only is it not that bad, it was pretty good. Who is that lead guy, AJ Buckley? It's a wonder, we don't see him more often cuz he completely carries the flick. The action sequences (especially hottie AJ with the shotgun) were completely gripping and made the film that much more enjoyable. At first I thought this might be a cheesy C- rip-off of SIGNS, but in reality, the film goes in its own, interesting direction and should not be dismissed before making your own opinion. Check it out if you can find it!

slimebitch I have seen this movie twice and I have also seen "The night of the living dead" and "Dog soldiers" and I am completley possitive that the sceens in this movie are not rip-offs from any of them. "The night of the living dead" are about zombies and it's true that people are trapped inside a house, but I have also seen other movies with this sceen. So why is this called a rip-off? It's a good trick to get excitement in a movie. And one other thing is that there has been made too many movies before so it's almost impossible not to steel one simular sceen from another movie. I think that this is a movie good enough to watch a Friday night with a precious friend. Exciting and a bit scary. In other words perfect to get the girl to crawl up your lap =).
