An ancient wind carries with it omens of the apocalypse, stirring the pride and envy of a group of college kids to murderous rage. Michael Mongillo's directorial debut is a lyrical, meditative film charged with sex and violence.

i know i wasted 90 mins of my life.

It's a mild crowd pleaser for people who are exhausted by blockbusters.

One of those movie experiences that is so good it makes you realize you've been grading everything else on a curve.

This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows

In a word, this "movie" was dreck! Beginning with a silly premise about some girl (looks older) who got "annoyed" by a boyfriend's unwanted attention and puts out a "hit" on him via his 3 supposed buddies, this movie descends into a disjointed mishmash. It has absolutely nothing to do with the apocalypse or with wind (except when a wind blowing machine sends some leaves in the direction of the actors). The boy (who looks like a man) is bludgeoned by the three friends who do the girl's bidding. She looks as though she was supposed to be casting a spell over them. The brother of the victim appears on occasion out of the blue as a psycho with brotherly issues; one of the deadly trio has the hots for the killer's mother; it turns out that the girl sent a certain mash letter to herself which started the whole business; the original murderer is repentant but must be dispatched for his misgivings by the remaining duo; except for Philipp Karner (a bit of eye candy who later appeared in KISS THE BRIDE)who is around 20, the other actors are closer to forty and are being passed off as much younger (they act that way in any event). The movie throws in a three-way homo-erotic kiss near the end during a "super bonding" incident for a little titillation and concludes with a near rape of the killer's mother by one of his buddies before that individual and the killer get theirs in a finale that is so off the wall it will leave you with your mouth hanging open - but NOT in a good way. The extra interviews with some of the cast says it all.

I found this dvd in the store and figured, why not support some indy film and watch a cool horror flick. Please save your time and money and pass this one by. The acting, the script, practically everything with this film is sub par. There really isn't much of a story, and there is no character development. I found myself not caring what happened to the people in the movie as long as something happened. Everyone is supposed to be college age, but they all look like they are in their mid thirties, except for the woman who plays a mother who looks like she is pushing 40. In fact the worst part of the film is that every single scene is shown in a master shot. There is no editing, no cut ins or close ups. Do yourself a favor and skip it.

pretty disappointing. i was expecting more of a horror/thriller -- but this seemed to be more of an episode of dawson's creek but with out the acting. there were some very impressive shots, though -- almost worth seeing. maybe future efforts will improve.

The best independent film of 2001 - I went to see The Wind at the recommendation of friends who caught it at Dances with Films Festival in LA last summer - it's a great, scary, well made film. The score was amazing. Can't wait to see his next movie!
