Incannerax What a waste of my time!!!

Fairaher The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.

Hadrina The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

Cristal The movie really just wants to entertain people.

pesic-1 This is the worst thing ever made by anyone. It makes absolutely no sense, it has a tone that is all over the place, it confuses audience and irritates the viewers by relentlessly trying to create a sense of mood, which never leads to anything in terms of drama or plot. It's just mood. And then my mood turns to agitated, then angry. I couldn't watch this nonsense until the end.But here is what makes things a lot worse: it is a butchery of the actual story it was based on. How on earth do you take a true story about a monster that stalks people at night and turn it into a dull, low-energy moody pile of **** where the highlight of the story are these nonsensical phone calls? How do you turn this incredible true story into something so boring? Why was the story changed? It just boggles the mind. I think whoever wrote this is mentally ill.Zero stars for this. I hate this film with a passion. My blood pressure jumps when I just think of this monstrosity of a film.

Python Hyena The Mothman Prophecies (2002): Dir: Mark Pellington / Cast: Richard Gere, Laura Linney, Will Patton, Debra Messing, Lucinda Jenney: Dull thriller that is supposedly based on fact. Richard Gere and Debra Messing move to Point Pleasant and purchase a new house but a car accident renders Messing with a severe head injury that eventually takes her life. Apparently she was consumed by a red flash before going off the road. Two years pass and Gere ends up in Point Pleasant again without knowledge as to how he got there. He knocks on a door and is confronted by a shotgun brandishing Will Patton who claims to have been irritated by knocking the past few nights. Intriguing plot fodders to a villain or force that just isn't threatening. Great production and fine directing by Mark Pellington who previously made Going All the Way. Gere holds his own as he struggles to figure out the past and current dilemma. The rest of the cast looks about as confused as the muddled foolishness going on around them. Patton is reduced to a bumbling buffoon. Laura Linney plays a police woman whose dreams have a connection to the conclusion but it makes no sense. The ending doesn't exactly give viewers their money's worth in terms of an explanation but this film is more or less a special effects feature with a plot every bit as real as the Easter Bunny. It is a pointless flash of stupidity. Score: 3 ½ / 10

Quebec_Dragon This one came out of left field. I thoroughly enjoyed it. It was gripping and fascinating. It was engaging emotionally and intellectually. Although things didn't always make sense, it was often surprising. In fact, the seemingly nonsensical stuff didn't bother me as it usually does; it even added to the allure of the mysteries. I enjoyed that it was a "new" mythology with a "creature" that hasn't been done to death before. Even better, it was ambiguous and intelligent. This is also a movie that's very stylishly directed with nice transitions, angle shots and filters. For such a gloomy film taking place mostly in a suburb, it sure looked pretty. The acting was top-notch with Richard Gere being impressive, and the other actors, especially the character actors, sounding true. Most of all, this movie was creepy as hell, not by being bloody and gory, but by creating atmosphere and scaring us with seemingly mundane stuff and revelations. The phone calls were particularly disturbing. I highly recommend this film if you're into psychological thrillers with supernatural overtones or loved the X-Files back in the days.Rating: 9 out of 10 (remarkable)

David L. There is only one movie I can honestly give a 10 out of 10 for the simple reason there will never be any other movie like it, no matter how they try to; and that movie is 2001 - A Space Odissey.There are however some well deserved 9's, and "The Mothman Prophecies" is one of them (IMHO).Here are my reasons for my score:The acting is top notch. - The Sound Track is as eerie as the movie it self (Kudos to Tomandandy) - The story {though loosely based on a book covering "real events") is gripping and well developed. - The photography is quite excellent and makes full use of darkness and "half-light". - The dialogs are meaningful and some of them will stick in your head. - Nothing in this movie happens without a reason and everything is interconnected either through the main characters and/or surroundings; which makes the whole movie a tight universe of moving parts. - The actors are perfect for their roles. - It's a rather interesting mix of Film-Noir, Suspense and Thriller (and this is achieved masterfully). But I would not consider it as a horror movie. Not per se at least. I must have watched this Gem of a movie at least some 20 times. I took quite a joy renting it over and over again in order to revisit it's eeriness and have a go at the Sound Track, until I bought a copy. The only other movie I ever did that with was "Jacob's Ladder", also a Masterpiece. They are two different "beasts", but so worth it.My most sincere congratulations to all the people involved in the making of this movie.
