The Messengers

It certainly helps to be familiar and enjoy the Japanese and Korean stlye of horror these days to enjoy THE MESSENGERS. It is slow and atmospheric and generates the slow burn scare rather than slapping you upside the head with viscera and flying intestines. The Pang brothers, famed for their EYE films in Asia, helm this Amercian project and the results are all well and good if you get this manner of film making. The ending is satisfying enough chosing to explain the happenings instead of leaving it up for interpretation and I guess the most important thing I could say about this one is if William B. Davis, A.K.A. the Smoking Man shows up wanting to but your farm........sell the fucking thing!
