The Traveler

Well let me tell you, after reading all those negative reviews I tough this movie would be so bad, but I said to myself come on, rent it, I'm a fan of Val Kilmer, and to be honest I think the acting of Val Kilmer, Paul McGillion and Dylan Neal was very good, can't say the same for the rest of the crew! This movie is good, creepy, and Val does a very good job at being creepy as hell. I gave this movie a 7 stars review, because of general good acting, creepy atmosphere, gory death scene,and I had no high expectation for that movie, so it was a pleasant surprise. I do recommend people to watch this movie, don't be turned down by all the 1 star reviews.

ps: Watch it in pitch black with your girlfriend,and after the movie, whistle like Val, you're girlfriend is going to love you :)

I agree with most of the reviews here, the movie (and acting) is awful and it looks like they've stolen Val Kilmer from a Wax Museum.

I'm more concerned with Val Kilmers career. Val Kilmer has always been one of my favorite actors and for a while now I've been hoping for a miraculous comeback. I don't have a clue as to why he's been wasting his talents on most of the movies he has starred in for the past few years. A part of me wants to believe his appearance and recent B-movies will make for a stronger comeback when he returns physically fit and giving a strong performance in a good movie.

My favorite Val Kilmer performances:

Comanche Moon - Deja Vu - Kiss Kiss Bang Bang - Wonderland - The Salton Sea - Heat - Tombstone - Thunderheart - The Doors

Hopefully there will be many more to come.

How about Val Kilmer and Steven Seagal, both lean and fit starring in a good thriller/action movie? That would be something..

While watching this movie, the storyline kind of reminded me of another movie and was somewhat similar - a 1973 western called "High Plains Drifter" with Clint Eastwood. Both actors were great in their leading roles, but it's kind of disappointing to see such similarities throughout the movie. It's like Hollywood couldn't think of something unique when writing this movie. At first, I thought Val Kilmer character was some sort of demonic entity placing a curse on the town, but was nothing more than a vengeful spirit getting revenge to those who killed him.

For months I wanted to watch this movie but because I am a true fan of these reviews and trust them (I usually don't watch them if they receive less than a 5 rating), I never watched it based on the low (4.0) score. However, out of boredom I ended up watching it on freevee and enjoyed it.

Aside from the horrible acting and the overly done killing scenes, this movie was watchable.

From the moment the "stranger" walked in the door, the movie keeps you on the edge of your seat. It was interesting all the way through. The message throughout the movie was one that was relatable and it really made me think about treating others right and not judging others. The best message I got? Even those who sit by in silence while an I justice happens will also suffer the consequences. Although the ending was not to my liking, I must say that this was a good movie.

I just signed up to Netflix and whilst scrolling through the horror section i came upon this movie.I always find characters who refuse to reveal who they are or what their motivations are always fascinating.I think the film is succinct and there is no unnecessary filler to pad it out.In essence it is basically a haunted house horror film,but the haunted house in question is a police station.There is plenty of gore in this film,but i think its justified in the sense that what the perpetrators of the offence did, deserved to have grisly terminations for there guilty deeds.The film is succinct and has no unnecessary filler,i can wholeheartedly recommend this film to any horror fan without question.Just like to add,do people give this film one or two stars just to look clever or smart, because it doesn't impress me very much.The new blood sport,ripping a movie to shreds for no discernible reason....very sad people.
