I read the short story, and was prepared for another take on it but it was a lot worse to what I'd hoped for. I liked the beginning and the monster had some cool festures to it but the later half of the lovie felt really uninspired and predictable. 1 out of 5 Stars, wouldn't watch again. But hey, everyone has different opinions.

I enjoyed it, granted it was also one of the few movies I've been able to see in theater since my son was born so that might have skewed my perspective. It wasn't high art but it was a solid film with some great set pieces. Really only tangentially related to the story but I think that was for the best, as the story relies a little too heavily on the sheer unlikeability of the David Dasmalchian (sp?) character.
