On the edge of the Antarctic Circle, in the years after World War I, a steam ship approaches a desolate island far from all shipping lanes. On board is a young man, on his way to assume the lonely post of weather observer, to live in solitude for a year at the end of the world. But on shore he finds no trace of the man whom he has been sent to replace, just a deranged castaway who has witnessed a horror he refuses to name. The rest is forest, a deserted cabin, rocks, silence, and the surrounding sea. And then the night begins to fall...

My quick rating - 5,6/10. Nice claustrophobic movie of being stranded on an island with "monsters" that are some weird mix of amphibious flesh eaters that fear the light so only attack at night. This is not a gore movie, really more of a thriller. It is the fight for survival of one man who is sent to replace the lighthouse/weather person on an island. They guy he was meant to replace decides to stay, so the two of them have to stay alive each night. They keep it interesting throughout, but the way the do so sometimes is a bit odd. No spoilers but if you run across it on cable, it is really fairly good for how they worked the story. The acting is good when need be (believable) and also a lot of acting is done with facial expression which isn't always easy to pull off. Check it out.
