Trivia
The time period - firmly set in the 2014 era, with internet hacking and smartphones - was intertwined with props from a previous era - with cassette recorders and landline telephones. This was done on purpose, as director Eubanks felt the addition of "old tech" works as a possible misdirect.

Goofs
When Nic is pulling Haley with his wheelchair in the corridors, as he turns the corner, her bed gets stuck. You can see the foot of a crew person who must've been pushing the bed and making sure it got stuck.

Quotes
Nic: The truth of the matter? What is the truth of the matter here? The only thing I know for certain is that you don't know what you're dealing with. You will be pulled from this shitty little shack you call a research facility so fast that the only thing relevant to be shown for any of this is the way it's all exposed, wrecked, and forgotten. You have *no* idea! You have no clue! Do you? Have any clue how fast dumb, lost little kids like me, Jonah, or Nomad could ruin a place like this? Have it come grinding to a halt like the stone wheel it is? You're clueless law in the Wild West, Damon. You're a relic protecting ruins. You're pathetic! The truth of the matter is that I'm the only one that has any sense around here.

Marmite movie

REVIEW - THE SIGNAL

One of the biggest problems I have with many films is that nothing is left unanswered and they always try to wrap everything up in a nice little red bow, personally I love films that do the exact opposite, leaving you with more questions after watching the film.

It's a shame that TV series do this with their end of season cliff hangers so you want more but films don't.

In the UK we have a sandwich spread called Marmite and opinions are very divided about its taste, you either love it or hate it.

The Signal is definitely a Marmite movie because you will either love the way it doesn't even try to answer any of your questions or you will hate it for the very same reason.

3 friends trace a signal which leads them to an old deserted house where something mysterious happens, waking up in what seems like a military hospital or is it, they soon realise that things aren't what they seem.

Slow in places but in others your jaw will drop as you didn't expect what's happened.

Personally I loved this film especially the very end which actually had me on the edge of my seat and mouthing OMG!

Marmite movie so be warned, you'll either love it or hate it.
