One of those horror movies that plays more to the psychological aspect than your typical film in the genre. The film is mostly about the characters and their motivations - some kind of virus has affected the world and our core family is isolated, and the father (Joel Edgerton - a good choice) trusts no one. But when a young couple, along with their young son, join them, the tension and paranoia grow until you know something is going to snap. Slow moving but ultimately rewarding.

The pacing was smooth and the cinematography was so excellent, it adds to the atmosphere with the setting. And you actually like the characters even the harsh decisions are understandable, because in a fear …
