This is one of the films that if you think about the concept too much it totally falls apart. Builds incredible tension for the first 2/3 though...

Really surprised by this film. The setting is perfect and the concept was intriguing. I love when a horror film keeps me this involved in the plot, completely curious to see what happens next and invested in the characters.

I heard the CBC audio story in the shower on my friends shower radio once. To hear it like that was SO cool. I was thinking what the fuck is going on!? This is some fucked up shit on the news right now... and then I recognized it.

its a very unpredictable plot but youll have to give it a chance. its pretty smart and will play on something that happens to everyone that you never think about. don't read any synopses about this film. just watch it. very surprising and enthralling.

Imperfect, but indeed smart... The casting of McHattie a masterstroke. Regrettably, the doctor's character was poorly written/acted and as such, took me out of the film at several points.

I'm hard-pressed to try and recall a more original and unique premise for a horror movie or thriller from the last 11 years. Excellent in every way and very complimentary of The Signal (2007).

Some good acting and cinematography. The film succeeds on Mazzy's performance--much like his radio show--and the fact that much is told, and not shown, is a testament to the quality of both the script and the acting. I found the first half of the film arresting. Really, all of it--until the major reveal. Zombies would have been more convincing.

I liked it. I really liked it. It was solid and exciting and everything that's good and true about cinema. That is until the "Kiss is Kill" bit. After that, it lost me.

Original and smart horror movie. Quirky like The Happening , thoughtful and deep like The Mist.

The camera work is extremely well done. It was engrossing for such a confined setting.

Never a dull moment. A incredibly difficult challenge considering the environment. One of the greatest and most inventive horror/Sci Fi/Thriller i've ever seen.

Wonderfully written and dense with tantalizing ideas which never quite resolve themselves. And that's a good thing.

Describing this film as "economic" may sound unfair but I mean it as a compliment. McDonald achieves a lot of tension with the bare minimum of film making. A Zombie film as a take on the power of language? Sure. Why not?

Talk about re-inventing a genre! Pontypool is a fresh take on, not only the most cliched of all movie genres, but on modern cinema. "Less is more" is the key when talking about this excellently delivered thriller. But don't be fooled, there is huge profundity under the minimalism.
