Isolation
Dir: Billy O'Brien
2006
****
Billy O'Brien's eerie Isolation is everything that a low budget horror/thriller should be. It is atmospheric, it is intense, it is mysterious and it is original. Although it may seem ridiculous it never feels unbelievable and the characters are convincing. It's very well acted by a competent cast, never over the top and is very stylish but without the cheap horror film cliches, I'm so glad it didn't turn into a zombie cow film, although that might have been cool also. It should have been more successful and it certainly deserves more recognition in my opinion.
