Review

A small town is soon celebrating its 100th birthday. When the party is coming closer there starts to be strange unnatural events all around. Mystical fog appears and on the fog there comes people who is searching for people to kill.

This was nice and enjoyable horror/thriller film. It was not scary at all in any point, but it was interesting and enjoyable. Story was good, acting was good and CGI works well enough. Of course you can easily see from CGI that it is not in the par of more modern films, but still it does what it needs to do.

Atmosphere is well built and story keeps its focus. Story is revealed in good pace.

I liked this movie. The end was surely absurd and cliché, but I assume that it was meant to be that way.
