The Roost (2004)
Member Rating:  
Creatures of the night find new prey on the scariest night of the year in this horror story. It's Halloween night, and four friends -- Allison (Vanessa Horneff), Elliott (Wil Horneff), Trevor (Karl Jacob), and Brian (Sean Reid) -- are on a road trip en route to a friend's wedding when their car breaks down after running into something. Looking for help, the four happen upon the farmhouse of an elderly couple, Elvin (Richard Little) and May (Barbara Wilhide), which is located next to a huge barn. Elvin and May have already become lost in the darkness of the barn, and soon two of the lost travelers are suffering the same fate as they search for friendly strangers. However, while they can barely see a hand in front of their face, they discover they're not alone in the barn, which has become home to a huge swarm of bloodthirsty bats. The Roost is framed by an introduction and postscript from a television horror show host, played by Tom Noonan. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

    Theres a new category since video equipment became progressively cheaper and DIY entertainment content is now hot which encourages lots of amateur filmmakers to go out and make their own flicks. That combined with the insatiable need for videos at rental firms has resulted in a huge category of ultra low budget films. When people used to say low budget you knew what to expect within a certain range which generally had made for TV type cheesy formulaic plot and actors that werent that great but it reached a certain level of technical competence. With ultra low budgets ---- amateurs, film students are literally shooting with a shoe string budget. This is in that category.

    please so yourself a favor and watch it through fast forward. I thought the beginning was slow... boy was I wrong. way to much sitting around and way to much talking... pointless... this movie starts nowhere and goes nowhere.
