The house belongs to a woman named Anna and her husband, who she has killed after he caught on to the crazy virus thingy. Mya also flees the scene and meets up with that very black dude, although it's safe to say that they're not together for long even though it is worth mentioning that he has a cool little home-made weapon that he uses to slay the crazies.Īnother segment focuses on a suburban home, where a whole lot goes down. It doesn't take long for Lewis to become delusional and unreasonably pissed off (usually about ridiculous things), and at that, he kills one of his friends, while the other one (a black dude, of course) escapes. We're told that the game was on but now, there is no game. She returns home after spending part of the night at his place, only to find Lewis and his friends fretting over the images that grace the screens of their televisions.

THE SIGNAL MOVIE
As the movie begins, we meet a blonde woman named Mya who is cheating on her husband Lewis (A.J. To me, there isn't much sense in me describing all three acts of the movie in extreme detail so I'll just tell you how it all goes down. It isn't long before their neighbors and close friends go mad and embark on little individual killing sprees. They're normal inner and outer city residents living the good and decidedly normal life until strange colors and images start to invade their flat screens. It is also a story divided into three simple acts each meant to say something interesting about human nature - with the overall message divided amongst several people. "The Signal" is a frightening, ingenious independent horror film about mysterious transmissions that are communicated by radio and television broadcasts. It does not matter where you are: for the noise will catch up to you either way. For a low-budget film, this is a decent try if only the script would have been reworked a bit, then The Signal would have been a terrific film.Ī city, an apartment complex, a small household, the streets. Overall a decent horror flick that is worth watching, but it leaves a lot to be desired as well.

However you do see the potential of a very good horror film here, it's just too bad that some ideas fell flat. There are some elements that work well, but most of them don't quite get there. The script was good, but like I previously stated, if only there could have been a bit more effort put into the second half, it would have made The Signal a much more memorable ride. This is a low-budget psycho Slasher film that almost gets it right. Unfortunately, The Signal leaves you wanting a bit more from the story, and as a horror film. I think it'\s a shame because this could have been a memorable horror flick with an effective plot. The films faults lie in the second half of the film where it falls apart. The films cast do a pretty decent job here, and the plot is pretty interesting as well. The film is watchable, but it could have been reworked a bit because there are some good ideas on-screen. What could have been an effective horror flick is brought down by a weak second half. The problem with this film is that it starts off promising enough, but halfway through it loses its strength, and becomes a decent flick. The Signal is a decent horror flick that had the potential of being a great film.
