Like its conseus, this film is filled with terror and dread. Take Shelter is a fantastic psychological thriller since Black Swan and others in the past. Michael Shannon gives a very dramatic performance that the Oscars should have nominated him. He was brilliant being a loving, but paranoid and frightened husband. Also Jessica Chasstain was realy good in this film. I find her a very kind and nice actress to be with. The script and direction from Jeff Nichols is great. The hallucinations scenes are so horific to look at. The ending to this film was very intense to look at. Micahel Shannon is easily my favorite actor from last year along Michael Fassbender,Ryan Gosling,George Clooney, and Jean Durjarden. A much more scary psychological thriller from last year than Martha Marcy May Marlene.

Rate:10/10.
