This film looks cool to me, and as I watched the trailer, it made me wonder - is this how Midian started out when it was built? TRAILERIMDBIt is 1879 in the Dakota Territories. A handful of brave pioneers maintain isolated settlements in the badlands beyond civilization. Irish Immigrant Fergus Coffey is near to winning the hand of his beloved Maryanne when she is suddenly taken from him, her family brutally abducted in a nighttime attack on their homestead. Suspicion falls immediately on hostile Indians. Experienced Indian fighters Will Parcher and John Clay form a posse and set out to rescue the kidnapped settlers, taking along a naïve teenager hoping to prove himself a man, an ex-slave looking to find his place in the world and their ranch-hand, Coffey. But as men vanish in the night and horrific evidence accumulates with the dead and dying, the group discovers that their prey is far more terrifying than anything human, and their prospects are far more terrible than death.

I'm always a sucker for horror films set in a period setting!

Hey - i saw it - cool film. I always think you can tell a good horror film by the fact that it would still be good with the supernatural or horrific element taken out. This movie works on a few levels - kept me interested throughout. The creatures are well hidden until the ending, the acting's good, the setting is unusual - nice call Darkglobe.
