The Crazies* (15)
Odeon Colchester
US 2010. Participant Media/Overture Films/Imagenation/Penn Station/Road Rebel. 101m. ws
An Iowa town is beset by a plague of insanity and an invasion by the suspicious military that caused it.
Smart variation on the Body Snatchers/Day of the Dead theme, another adequate horror remake of a film already made a generation earlier, which begins well but soon slips into horror cliches and sags towards the end, but still unsettles.
Written by: Scott Kosar, Ray Wright, from the 1973 film by George Romero.
Producers: Rob Cowan, Michael Aguilar, Dean Georgaris.
Director: Breck Eisner.
Starring: Timothy Olyphant, Radha Mitchell, Joe Anderson, Danielle Panabaker.
Photography: Maxime Alexandre.
Music: Mark Isham.
THE CRAZIES. Radha Mitchell faces up to the prospect of half her home town turned into murderous killers, and the greater horror of the military who think she is one too.
