Anyone else seen this. A Nazi (Michael Fassbender) comes to a house to obtain the help of a family, unknowngly to them, to use the power of the occult to 'cross over' and become a more powerful being. Two brothers (Henry Cavill and Dominic Purcell) try and stop him.

Really enjoyed it for the most part, while watching it though you get the impression there was a lot of rewriting, and I learned after that Joel Schumacher, who directed it, fell out with David Kajganich, writer, over all the changes Schumacher wanted to make, and in the end Schumacher won and rewrote a lot of it.

Fassbender is a superb villain, and while not given a huge amount to do, radiates evil and is great to watch, even his voice is spot on for the part. There's definitely a lot worse horrors out there than this. It's pretty insane mostly, for example it has flesh eating horses, Viking runestones, suits of bone armour etc. Well worth a watch though.

Never got to see it in full. Started to watch it one night and then there was a power cut and that was that.

So must actually watch it next time it on tv.

Picked it up cheap on blu ray some time back. Enjoyed it quite a bit. Loved the horses


Fassbender was very good as always.

The opening 5-10 minutes I thought it might be interesting. Then it just turned into another boring backwoods horror/quasi-zombie movie.
It was utterly forgettable. In fact it was a something of a chore to get through.

And Henry Cavill was so wooden you could've nailed a martyr to him.
