Why it’s a Weeknight Watch

With middling reviews (36% on Rotten Tomatoes) and soft box office, it's a mixed bag. Fine if it's on; don't plan your night around it.

Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.

Is it for you?

Who'll love it
One for fans of a well-timed joke and people who like to watch through their fingers. One the grown-ups won't mind watching too. A good follow-up to Trick 'r Treat.
The mood
Scary.
The pace
Builds dread steadily, at 1 hr 34 min.
What might put you off
Skip it if you can't get past animation (your loss).

Broadcasting through a makeshift network of discarded televisions, this story is tangled up in the aftermath of Los Angeles's worst earthquake nightmare. Travel between screens and aftershocks into the twisted lives of the survived.
