Review of The Mothman Prophecies (2002) by Nixy — 27 Sep 2012

This film did a brilliant job at creeping me out. It is by no means a jump out of your seat 'Ooo! Loud noise and scary face' sort of horror, but it was the subtlety and suggestion that made it so unsettling.

If you're the sort of person who likes to pick apart films and discredits them for anything not based 100% in reality then sure, there's a fair bit to criticise. It's not totally realistic but at the same time it's not so far-fetched that you disregard it straight away.

All in all, I thought this was a pretty solid film, good cast, great story, great execution. Definitely worth a watch in my opinion.
