The Reaping

Who's in it? Hilary Swank, David Morrissey, Stephen Rea
What's it about? A former missionary investigates a small town which seems to be suffering from the biblical plagues.
What type of film is it? Chiller
Is it any good? It’s not terrible but the scares aren’t scary enough and there aren’t enough of then. It’s creepy and the cast is first class but there’s something not quite right – I just can’t put my finger on it. You could do a lot worse than this, and it’s probably the best of recent attempts at modern horror, but not as scary as it should be. Sufficient but not a classic.
