This movie has no plot. Which isn't necessarily a bad thing, but it's unusual to say the least. Nothing is resolved at the end of the movie. Literally. We leave not knowing if the 'ghosts' will be killed, if in fact there is a way to kill them at all. Will our heros ever leave the planet? Will there be a final confrontation? I guess, given the premise, these questions were too hard to answer even for John Carpenter.

Don't get me wrong. The movie itself is quite entertaining in it's "badness". I recommend it, if your theatre often features a cheap night. ;)

I am absolutely shocked by the number of people who are claiming this movie is boring. In a world dominated by monstrously uncreative horror flicks (ala 1999's The Haunting), this is the first legitimately scary movie I've seen. I was absolutely terrified.

If you are reading this, and you haven't yet seen the movie, please stop reading all these user reviews and go see it. The only thing you need to know ahead of time is the high user rating (8.2 out of 10 as of this writing). But once again, a warning: There are some reviews posted here that will absolutely ruin the whole experience for you. Close this browser window and head to the theatre. This movie is a chilling classic.

Firstly, this is *not* an adaptation of Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet. This is instead an extremely entertaining action movie with tremendous fight scenes.

Definitely one of the best movies I've seen recently.
