De familie Solomon heeft het gehaaste leven van Chicago verruild voor het bestaan op een afgelegen boerderij in North Dakota. Te midden van de rust en de velden vol zonnebloemen, komt de 16-jarige Jess erachter hoe angstaanjagend hun isolement kan zijn wanneer zij en haar jonge broertje Ben onheilspellende geesten waarnemen die niemand anders zien kan. Niemand gelooft haar, ook niet wanneer de verschijningen gewelddadig worden. (Benelux Film Distributors)

Recensie (2)
A horror film for beginners or those slightly advanced, for Kristen Stewart fans, for those who don't mind films that rip off better known and better works, and last but not least, for Sam Raimi fans who are curious to see what he has done with his name this time. I have to say that I generally liked The Messengers, in a safe sort of way. It looks decent, LoDuca's music is reliably atmospheric, Kristen Stewart can be sympathetically frightening when she needs to be... Don't expect anything surprising, "only" a new take on something you've seen before, which (hopefully) won't lull you to sleep thanks to its reasonable runtime.

The Messengers is a weak version of a hackneyed story, with an ending totally botched up by major lapses in logic.
