That was an excellent one.

Sorry, this movie sucks

I am only giving this movie a 1 for the great cast, though I can't imagine what any of them were thinking. This movie was horrible

It is a whirlwind of delight --- attractive actors, stunning couture, spectacular sets and outrageous parties.

When I have found this movie all comments were about how genius this movie is. The scariest and the first in this genre. In my opinion, people who find this movie scary and intimidating just remember the feelings when the watched it for the first time.The poverty is everywhere. And it's not about 90-s. The thing is that the great movie could be placed only in 1 room. For example "12 angry men" - who will dare to say that it lacks effects? It's great just the way it is.All scary moments are in loud sounds and the father's picture.The plot is nothing. He wants they there just because it's a better place. Really? It's easier to say when you had lived until silver hair. It's been only a week of "happy life" and it's also seems strange and unreal. The only prohibition is to speak this phrase and because he didn't watched what he was saying - Father (the great and kind man) diceded to blast his relatives. Sounds like a great dad.

Rated as the scariest Russian horror movie ever, Prikosnovenie (which is best translated into English as The Encounter, not Contact) is one of those films viewers don't watch twice -- at least that's what many of them admit online. A low-budget supernatural murder mystery filmed with a bare minimum of homemade special effects succeeds brilliantly in creating a truly inhuman, otherworldly atmosphere you won't want to experience again in a hurry.A detective investigating a series of suspicious suicides realizes too late he might not be dealing with an organized crime group of hypnotists as he first believed...The strength of the movie is in the fact that it's not filmed for entertainment, the way most horror flicks are. You're not expected to watch it, stretch and say "it was only a movie". It's filmed in dead (pardon the pun) seriousness, a fictionalized documentary rather than a scary bedtime story. Interestingly, director Albert Mkrtchyan -- who enjoyed the challenge of working on a supernatural story contrary to his superstitious friends' warning -- very nearly shared the main character's fate and never made another film until his death 15 years later.The film is unique in that it actually makes us experience the other side beyond life, the notorious next world -- not as a filmmaker's concept but as raw unedited truth. How did the director do it? -- Well, that's talent for you. But just getting a glimpse of what might await you out there is enough reason to carry on living.

Well, this unknown but genius horror film had a deep and real beyond story, including the mystery of the screenplay, very real feeling of dead world. I can compare this film with Lucio Fulci's last "The door to the silence" of the same year. A detective is working on a strange suicide story and meets strange people who tells about "forzi"- some beyond creatures taking away people beyond. The hero was prohibited to say the words "The life is wonderful and nice". Every time he said that accident happen. Bad ending . A lot of cemeteries, super sound-effects, true story and masterpiece music.
