Mouse Rating & Review: C
This movie starts out well, and with the illusion of a full plot & framework for movie. It is definately very creepy, and I do give it high marks in the scary department. However it fails to progress much after the first 45-60min. I wouldnt say it was a terrible movie; but it couldve been much better if it wouldve kept with the same momentum it had in the first half. When looking for the logistics to see who directed it etc, I realize it is a remake movie; so maybe that explains why it didnt develop more. So in one way I give the director credit for not straying from the orignal plot (if that is the case, I dont know the first was made in the 60's) but on the other hand: why would you select a movie with out a full/ decent plot to remake int he first place? A catch 22. Either way, if you like being creeped out & dont have anything important to do I guess go for it!??!

Cat Rating & Review: C+
This movie seemed very interesting from the preview so we thought we take the kittens to see this movie. it started very fast into the plot of mystery about the vanishing of all the people, which is great for us because now we have all the treats for ourselves as cats. This was  maybe a mix of a supernatural / Science mystery , not sure because it was never explained but it did have very creepy shadow people. Good for a creepy scare but the ending was very weak and kept you wondering where did all the stinky people go.
