Warning: Spoilers
***SLIGHT SPOILERS**** This review may have a few things from the movie, but nothing that gives the whole story away. ****SLIGHT SPOILERS***** Some people here need an explanation for everything that happens in every movie, all nicely laid out for them in a bullet point plot summary so they can wax intellectual about it with their friends down at the coffee shops. This movie left a lot to the imagination, and didn't give an explanation at the end. Well boo-hoo if that's not good enough for you, but I, on the other hand, love a good mystery or a story about unexplained events. This movie was pretty intense all the way through, grabs you quickly in the start and pulls you in. Whereas the special effects were nothing spectacular, it really doesn't take much to make moving darkness look good. It did what they needed it to do, and it works. If you don't like it, go watch Avatar again, get your fx fix there. This movie flowed well, the actors did a good job, especially the kids, and the ending was good. It could of been a horrible ending, they could of Tried to explain what was going on, and it would of been sooo thin and over-used it would of Totally ruined the movie. Imagine Hayden finding out that it's Another top secret government experiment gone horribly wrong. OMG that would of been horrible, and would of made me hate this movie.

**SLIGHT SPOILER**** - Plus, it is Supposed to be unexplained, as John L.'s character explains from the story in his book. Why would it of not been explained back then but all of a sudden be explained now? Not everything in life makes sense, not everything is Explained. It Just Happens, deal with it.

The most unbelievable part of this movie was the girl working behind the popcorn stand at the movie theater in the beginning. When was the last time you saw a girl even remotely that hot working a popcorn stand? That's what I thought. =P
