The Full Trailer For THE SIGNAL Is Being Sounded!

Hey folks, Harry here... As the year is beginning to wrap up and we here at AICN are pulling together our lists, a film that I'm considering seriously putting high in my top ten of 2007 is THE SIGNAL. This is an incredibly intimate, yet grand film about what it's like to go through the end of civilization... as we know it. THE SIGNAL isn't strictly the most original of films - it shares motifs with Matheson, Romero, King and others... but ya know... I'd argue that cinematically... dramatically... this group of very young and under-financed filmmakers not only nailed it, but did so with style, flourish, intelligence emotion and panache that we haven't seen combined this well, perhaps ever.

Quint saw this film in January this year at Sundance, then I saw it at midnight during SXSW - and it has been one of those films that I've been waiting for it to come out so it could get all of you - as well. It's due out towards the end of February 2008, and the full length trailer has just popped up in Glorious Quicktime at Apple. So check it out and get ready for horror like you haven't seen in ages. This is something altogether new in how it is played out and performed. Brilliant work.

THE SIGNAL is sounding, can you keep it under control?
