The Signal, 2007

I found this film shocking, funny, thought-provoking, gory and really interesting. One day, a 'signal' is suddenly transmitted on all TVs, radios and phones which is basically like noise interference. At first, it just seems like a strange phenomena. As the plot unravels, it appears that this signal has a bizarre effect on some people, turning them into crazed murderers! The film takes you through different people's perspectives and is really, really good fun. Some of the bloody scenes are utterly disgusting and shocking but you find yourself going "eeeeew ..... ha ha ha" because the way it mixes horror and comedy is genius. It would be fair to call this film disturbing but don't let that put you off, it is fabulous and should definitely be on your list of ones to watch.

SECOND OPINION: After watching this film I read an interesting fact, which tied it all together rather nicely. It is written and directed by three different people. This explains why it starts as a rather chilling zombie horror, turning into a raucous comedy half way through and ending as a nailbiter. Writing that down makes it sound rather disjointed, which it is...to be fair. However, the effect it has is not to drop you out of the story. In fact it amplifies the horror by lulling you into a false sense of security. Just when I was laughing, very hard,  the horror came back into the room and wiped the smile off my face in seconds. So to sum up, it's brilliant, inspired, difficult to define and most importantly, thoroughly enjoyable.
