Salvage

An interesting creature feature from the UK, that first caught my attention a few years back.Well-written,and decent acting makes for a gory suspense thriller about a quiet British neighborhood under attack by a vicious force that is causing psychological,and physical harm to the citizens.The military is rushed into the area to enforce an order for residents to remain locked in their homes. This only ramps up the tension as the residents wonder what they are hiding from in their homes.Some bloody killings of people trying to gain entrance to the homes of their neighbors, as they are pleading to be allowed to enter,brings to mind some of the scenes from the movie,The Mist,and The Fog. This movie is for the hardcore horror/thriller movie fans who love blood spattered gory scenes!

It is the stark tale of a mother's overwhelming desire to protect her daughter, in the face of an unknown terror. It takes place the morning of Christmas eve. The neigborhood is locked down by the authorities. Everyone is to remain inside, but her daughter is visting across the way. It is now a challenge for her to make her way to her daughter. Defying the authorities she seeks to leave her house and cross the street to her daughter. In her pursuit she encounters the reason for the lock down. She must battle with it and evade the authorities to achieve her goal. The how she improvises to reach this goal is the crux of the tale.

I'm sure this movie is better than it seemed. Its just I kept missing key details because the sound and heavy British accents left me very confused as to where the story was going by the end. Very gripping anyways, with lots of suspense.

Good movie. I do recommend watching.

Great horror movie. Will hold you to your seat. Some gore and scary. Good story line.

Was pleasantly surprised by this movie. Good story line and very suspenseful. Main characters are not average horror movie victims--much more like people I know (not glamorous or perfect). Intelligent horror.

Typical low budget horror. British accents and explicatives are fun.

Action never stops great story and keeps you on the edge of your seat.Love the indepent films like this. Storage 24 is another that was just awesome.

This is a really good film which is quite scary. I ended up using a pillow when there was no background music!I saw this on TV ages ago only recently BBC2 took it off for some reason and thought I would buy it. The story is familiar though; a container gets dropped accidenly from an army helicopter landing on a local beach on Christmas Eve. The residents of a local housing cul de sac (was formerly the Brookside set), live in fear as a creature escapes and starts attacking them in their homes. The military are less than understanding as they actually shoot any survivors, possibly for fear of anyone telling the truth about their secret experiment.It is well acted for a British film although I feel they should have allowed more of the neighbours have a speaking role as the film got a bit quiet so you expected something to jump out. It's only 1hour and 15 minutes long as I guess there was only so much they could film but pretty good all the same.

Really enjoyed this film, better than what I had actually expected

good suspense

Good

Great film

This British horror, filmed on the set of Brookside Close, may be low on budget, but its high on tension, as the story follows a mothers frantic attempts to rescue her estranged daughter from the house across the street once the housing estate they are on becomes the setting for a deadly game of cat and mouse between a small group of soldiers and something far more horrible than Sinbad's underpants, an escapee from a top secret military experiment.It makes very good use of its locations, as the housing estate becomes a dark, claustrophobic hunting ground for the creature on the loose. Beth, the mother, is an interesting character, who finds hidden strengths in adversity. She is reluctantly aided by her lover Keiran, who also digs deep to find his courage. Neve McIntosh and Shaun Dooley are both very good in these roles. Despite its short running time, the film can meander at times, but it is punctuated by scenes of great tension. All in all another very fine addition to the modern British horror renaissance.

i was expecting a lot from this after reading the reviews, but I found it very disappointing.the acting is excellent, granted, but the build up went on and on until the very end when (it's difficult not to give too much away)you see who/what is responsible for the murders. I thought it/he looked ridiculous.I suggest you rent before buying.

Brilliant film.

excellent film

I only ordered this film because it was filmed on the set of Brookside Close, but it's a good film considering it was done on such a small budget.

I received it on time, would be fantastic if it actually worked. Tried it on two players no luck.

kurz gesagt einer der langweiligsten filme überhauptkann ihn nicht weiter empfehlen totale geldverschwendunghat nichtmal nen fstern verdient einschlaf gefahr

Ein wirklich spannender Film der bis zum Schluss das Publikum in Spannung aber auch Adrenalin verspricht. Blue ray ist völlig funktionsfähig und im guten Zustand.

my order arrived the day amazon promised it would and the product was in excellent condition. very satisfied.
