very good movie

good movie, altho the book is better this movie is sure under-rated on this site , if you read the book you will find it much better because it almost have the same ambience.

Dont post reviews if you don't like the 'alien' themed movies , cuz they are few , and pretty hard to make

this movie shows a good example how good-spooky alien films should be, and definatly better than the modern over-hyped movies like independence day, resident evil and Signs
