Population 436 (2006)


The Good:
The plot took its time to develop and build into an interesting story.
The acting was pretty good.
I like seeing a good horror/thriller that takes place in the daylight.
The main character reacts, in general, like a sane and rational human being. That is somewhat of an rarity in a horror.
Kept my attention.

The Bad:
It was a little slow in parts.
Some characters seemed extraneous, especially this one kid (used basically to propel the plot) and this other weird teen.
Nothing put you on the edge of your seat, not that it totally needed to.

Overall: I liked this movie more than I ever expected to. I give it a middle America Wicker Man... well, not that good though.
