User Reviews

Great film! Edge of your seat suspense

This kept me on the edge of my seat for most of the film. Beautiful shots, mysterious setting, and great acting by Val Kilmer and several lesser known folks, especially the lead. Don't watch this movie if you don't like horror films, because it will keep you up the night you watch it! Also make sure you get a good drink beforehand because with the fear you will experience it's a much more intense viewing than most so-called horror movies. A lot of movies have been filmed near this part of the country (notably Mothman Prophecies in 2001), but none of them managed to show the grit and reality as well as Riddle. I think they didn't get a wider release because Mross is a new director, but hopefully word will spread that this is a terrific film.
