Diagonaldi Very well executed

MoPoshy Absolutely brilliant

Guillelmina The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.

Billy Ollie Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable

SpannersGerm669 Plague Town does manage to create a great atmosphere, so it does achieve what it sets out to do, so credit must be given there. However, atmosphere can't work alone, and unfortunately that's all that the film has going for it.We have a group of characters who we really don't care for, below par acting performances and a poor script, which makes me feel as though the great atmosphere was somewhat wasted, which is the biggest disappointment of Plague Town.There are some brutal scenes of violence. Some looked really good and some looked really fake, but for a low budget film, i thought the production level was good, it was just unfortunate that the acting and script couldn't help keep the film afloat! Overall, for independent horror, Plague Town isn't terrible. In fact, its better than a lot of horror movies out there. I just couldn't help but feel that it should have been much better!

sleeping_gorilla Plague Town is a B-Movie in the vein of Wrong Turn, Texas Chainsaw Massacre. A dysfunctional family discovers a village of horrors in a remote Irish countryside.The movie relies tired horror tropes, and is only occasionally scary. ***SPOILER*** Notably when the children first show up by the car, and the subsequent beating with the hub cap. ***END SPOILER***Too many "scary" scenes are long shots of heavily prosthetic actors basically standing around throwing random things at a "terrified" character. The principal acting isn't terrible, at times it's almost improve ("We have one!")Notable performance from Josslyn DeCrosta, though she and Erica Rhodes become pretty annoying as the second half of the movie goes south. Not to be a voyeur but with the "plot" of this movie and 3 attractive actresses it would have made sense for the girls to show a little skin.The soundtrack is pretty good, though constantly there. If you are a die hard horror fan, this movie will probably entertain you. I recorded this along with "Daisy Chain" as part of the Chillers St. Patrick's Day marathon. Daisy Chain is a much better film, but I'm sure that Plague Town will find an audience.

Tromafreak Anyone who knows horror knows that this misunderstood genre has seen much better days. The 90's was by far the worst period ever, although our current decade hasn't been THAT much better. Most people are limited to the mainstream, the first 4 Saw's were good, and our pal. Rob Zombie has made quite an impact, but The truth is, nowadays, independent horror is the only place to find true quality. I'm not talking about Dimension Extreme independent, I'm talking about Subrosa independent, I'm talking about Troma independent, yeah, B-movies. Some are worthless, some are awesome, but once in awhile, even in this day in time, one might stumble across a rare work of art, just waiting to be discovered. Enter Plague Town.About a family, none of which seem to enjoy each others company, vacationing in the depths of Ireland. They have some British guy with them, apparently to keep the more ornery daughter quiet, which doesn't work, but it was a nice thought nonetheless.The bickering family, along with British guy, wonder around just long enough to miss the bus back, but is eventually offered help by a harmless, yet peculiar stranger, even though they didn't feel they needed it, although, it's not dark yet , now is it?There are some disturbing things that come out at night around these parts, dangerous things with bad intentions that aren't necessarily looking to kill, but what this family doesn't realize, there are some scenario's far worse than death.I am Impressed beyond words, Plague Town is proof that The Horror genre is alive and well, and I was starting to worry, but never mind, David Gregory is on it. Eli Roth could learn a thing or two from this guy. Certain things, as insignificant as they may seem, really brings out the horror in the horror. Everything about Plague Town looks dark and desolate, not a lot of color. Plague Town is not over-scored, which is also a plus. Very little character development, as strange as that may seem, makes for quality horror, the less you know the better, in this genre mystery equals success. The vibe of Plague Town reminds me of obscure horror gems of the 70's, like Messiah Of Evil and Bruial Ground, as if it just ended up with the pure essence of horror by accident. We're looking at quality from all directions, from the simple, yet horrifying plot, to the subtle, yet haunting score, to the brutality and hopelessness, to that adorable, worried-looking chick. They got it all right. Plague Town is the horror masterpiece of the decade. 8/10

Kellie Stewart This movie was plagued to be horrible after the first scene. The plot was very predictable. The "children" were very creepy looking. I would not want to run into them in a dark alley. They were the only thing interesting about this movie. If they had given an explanation of why these children were born as they were, it would have added a lot to the story. Also they should have made it clear as to whether or not what the children were doing was ritualistic to try to turn the town's luck around, or was it all just sport for them. The way the Englishman ended up seemed very ritualistic. My biggest question is how did the outlying towns not know about this little community? This was a waste of time to watch and could have been a better movie with very little effort on the part of the people that made the movie. Just by giving some explanations would have enhanced the movie. I found it totally boring and a bunch of nonsense with some good make-up effects thrown in.
