Sorry, this movie sucks

Absolutely brilliant

The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.

I was looking forward to watching it after reading loads of positive reviews but I just wasted 90 minutes or so of my life

This movie makes very little sense. The entire movie takes place in the same spot. It is not scary and don't see how this is "the best" horror movie on Netflix. Cliché. Acting is very poor as is the quality. Only watch is you have nothing better to do or unless you want to go to sleep. Would not recommend.

Pontypool is one of the most thrilling films I have ever seen. Its central conception of the peculiar virus that infects the citizens of the small town is so original, that no viewer will ever see it coming. Although this big surprise comes up during the second half of the movie, the narrative keeps the viewer at the edge of his/her seat right from the first second by its ingenious introduction as well as its exciting characters. Stephen MacHattie is actually giving an energetic and fully consistent performance. Through the radio broadcast the characters and the audience can only guess what is going on outside. The contained radio station works in the beginning as a safe zone, but as the nature of the virus is gradually revealed and explained, the tension is being built up to the point where no one is safe! Finally a horror film that has no need for CGI and explicit scenes of violence to make it work!Watch the scene after the ending credits!

I would give this a minus 10 if it were possible. Seriously? Synopsis: 3 People not trapped in a radio station relay what's going on outside to their listeners. That's the whole bloody movie - at least up to 42 minutes, which is when I stopped watching. Couldn't get through this borefest.Nothing much happens in the first 20 minutes except for one idiotic jump scare. Hand on the window....oooooo scary! Then there is a blackface skit....yes, a blackface skit....oh yes, now I really care about the inhabitants of this dumb town, don't I? Then the reports started coming in. Then some idiotic lines in Spanish about not translating into English...Bottom line - stupid movie for stupid people...don't waste your time
