"An adventure/mystery - looks like something from a dark fairy tale" LA TIMES "A gorgeous tale of mythical creatures, feminine rage, and regret". SIGNAL HORIZON "The Isle swims wonderfully through some remarkably unique territory to create a tale that is nothing short of filmic literature" CRYPTIC ROCK On a remote island off the west coast of Scotland in 1846 a heavy storm hits, causing a ship to sink. Three survivors row through a thick early morning mist, lost and disorientated. The mist begins to clear and The Isle appears before them. They soon discover that it is almost abandoned except for four sole residents: an old harbour man, a farmer, his niece and a young hermit woman. Once rested and recovered the sailors are desperate to leave and return to the mainland, but the promised boat never appears. One of them starts to investigate and learns of a tragedy at sea that occurred five years previously causing several young men from the island to perish. When his two shipmates meet ...
I saw this film without watching the trailer or reading anything bah it. Sometimes i do that n if the film turns out to be good, I rejoice but in this case i got irritated. How come they still churn out lazy n lame films like these is beyond my understanding. The film is a bit similar to Gareth Evan's The Apsotle but nowhere close to being good like it.
The plot - After surviving a storm, three survivors arrive on an island inhabited by only four fellas, an old harbour man, a farmer, his niece and a young mad woman. I am giving it 3 stars, one for some decent cinematography, 1 for the attractive babe Alix Wilton Regan n 1 for the effort.
The film is devoid of any tension or suspense. The editing is atrocious. This film cud have been a decent 45 min episode. Ther is one very lousy n pathetic sex scene, that too not of Alix Regan but with the director's real wife.
