Movie Reviews of The MessengersMovie Review: Let me be a Messenger: DON'T WATCH THIS MOVIE! Summary: 2 StarsYou'll need two cans of air freshener to neutralize the stench of this stinkeroo, which has to be one of the dumbest horror flicks I have ever seen.
(P.S. Dude, the stuff with the marauding birds has already been done. His name was Hitchcock.)
Find another way to spend 90 minutes of your life. The biggest horror to this movie would be in wasting any more time watching it.
Summary of The MessengersAn ominous darkness invades a seemingly serene sunflower farm in North Dakota and the Solomon family is torn apart by suspicion mayhem and murderRun Time: 90Format: DVD MOVIE Genre: DRAMA Rating: PG - 13 UPC: 043396148505 Manufacturer No: 14850 Lithe and tomboyish Kristen Stewart (Panic Room, The Safety of Objects) anchors the derivative but potently atmospheric horror movie The Messengers. The story--a troubled family moves into one of those creepy farmhouses that scream "serial murder site" and find their lives disturbed by unearthly occurrences--is a puree of plot elements from The Sixth Sense, The Birds, The Amityville Horror, The Shining, the recent spate of Japanese horror remakes, and more. Despite this, the movie may get under your skin; between the bleached sunlight, the effective ambient sound, and scenes that linger unexpectedly on quiet suspense, The Messengers creates a vivid and unsettling mood. There are still plenty of the abrupt jolts that make teenager girls clutch their dates, but this artful creepiness--combined with Stewart's engaging presence--will have a longer effect. Also featuring Dylan McDermott (The Practice), Penelope Ann Miller (Carlito's Way), and John Corbett (Northern Exposure, Sex and the City). Directed by the Pang Brothers, the duo responsible for Hong Kong hits like The Eye and Infernal Affairs. --Bret Fetzer Beyond The Messengers at Amazon.com  More Horror DVDs |  Things that go Bump in the Night |  Small Town Life on DVD | Stills from The Messengers (click for larger image)
