Very Cool!!!

Strictly average movie

It is a whirlwind of delight --- attractive actors, stunning couture, spectacular sets and outrageous parties. It's a feast for the eyes. But what really makes this dramedy work is the acting.

Wanna know what comes at night? Do you really wanna know?ABSOLUTELY NOTHING!!! The "monster" of the film is nothing more than the paranoia and distrust of others that exists in a post apocalyptic world where most people are dead from a very deadly disease.Wanna know what I thought was coming at night? ANYTHING!!! The trailers for this movie that were out before it's release, and look on YouTube or read the reviews here (I'm betting someone else mentions this) showed a series of scenes that gave the impression that this was a creature feature, monster movie, whatever. It could have been aliens, demons, cannibals, whatever... from what I was shown I was sold a completely different film than what I got. Add to that the fact that THE TITLE GIVES THE SAME IDEA to people and fed in to the misleading trailers and you walk away feeling ripped off plain and simple.If it had been marketed as a film along the lines of The Road or a darker less religious (maybe even atheistic with how devoid of any hope the film is in the world it creates) Book of Eli and I totally would have walked away liking it. In a world where society has collapsed it does a great job of showing just how untrusting, un-neighborly, cruel and selfish (more so the 2nd family than the central) people can really be when they cast aside the rules we live by. I just don't see what explanation the filmmaker could possibly have for going with this title, and by doing so, it makes it impossible for him to avoid suspicion and claim innocence regarding the misleading, false-advertising trailers. Sorry, can't blame that one on the studio, your title fed right into the deception.And btw, if that's the intent and you think audiences ENJOY being tricked, ask Trey Parker how that kind of crap works and if he has any regrets over the early years of South Park. We don't like being the butt of the joke or somebody's lab rat. Making sure to check the directors name so I never watch anything else of theirs like ever. I'm sure they would know from reading all this what exactly I would suggest that they go and do to themselves.

I don't think this really falls under the Horror OR Mystery category. It's nothing. Suspense, maybe at best? The beginning and some parts here and there were promising, but the rest really was...nothing. You wait, and wait, and guess what? NOTHING. There is really no point to the movie at all. There is no discernible sequence of events. The whole movie just feels like bits and pieces stuck together. A LOT is missing though. I understand that some movies have unresolved endings. Sometimes it works. This is definitely NOT one of those times. The ending isn't unresolved, the whole movie is. Absolutely no back story at all. People in cities started getting "sick". That's literally all you learn through the entire movie. What comes at night? Is it some sort of virus? Zombies perhaps? Hell, I would take aliens even. An entire movie about not leaving your house only works if you have even the slightest idea of WHY you aren't leaving your house. Just so disappointing. So glad I didn't spend money to see this in theatres or rent it.

From the description of the movie on Netflix - and the title of the movie itself - I was expecting "It Comes at Night" to be a full blooded horror movie. But in actual fact, it really isn't. Though there are a few creepy sequences, the movie is more of a straight drama, a kind of post-apocalypse movie that spends most of its time running at a fairly sober level. Actually, the movie being different than what I expected didn't bother me at all. What did bother me was that there are some key features of the movie that don't have enough explanation at all. For example, the part where the dog goes crazy and runs off, and a later scene about a door being open mysteriously. The movie definitely has some strengths - it does not spoon-feed its audience about the plot setup, instead making you learn little by little what happened. There are some tense moments, dramatic and/or creepy. And I wasn't bored at any moment. But the many unexplained questions that come up ultimately make this a (near) miss. Still, if the filmmakers attempt to make another movie, I will give it a look, since there were some good things in this film, and they may have learned from their mistakes here.

...but I was surprised. Got the same feeling from this movie as I got with The Bunker (2001),It doesn't focus to much on the horror aspect but lets call it psychological horror. So for all your slasher horror fans this movie is a waste of time. This movie focus more on the human aspect when a disaster (in this case an illness) is decimating the human population. The distrust for other people (families) and the loyalty to your own.
