Old Fart Doesn't the shills realize that when they offer a 10 of 10, followed by raving about how great a movie like this is ....everybody knows they're not being truthful?This movie is not absolute garbage, but it's not great either.

Michael Ledo The film opens with an interesting soundtrack and background of printed material over a wall that creates an eerie atmosphere of mystery. We find seven people trapped inside an abandoned mental institution. They have electric lights and water. They ration food, mostly strawberry bars as Jeffrey(Seth David Mitchell) has scarfed the better tasting blueberry bars.The film centers around Jack (Ed Quinn) the leader of this group of survivors. The first 15 minutes introduces the characters and the situation. One person, Noah (Edward Furlong) lives in the basement and advises Jack alone. Locked in the building, it is always light outside with "those things" trying to get them. Harold (Jeff Fahey) speculates it is aliens, and is quickly quieted as discussing what "they" are is forbidden.The days pop up on the screen. The film starts at day 89 and works back down to zero, although the plot moves forward. At day zero, the mystery reveals itself in case you hadn't figured it out. There are clues and the clues become more overt as the film goes on.I enjoyed the character interaction and several of the soundtrack pieces. As an action film it was slower than "The Divide."Parental Guide: F-bomb. No sex or nudity.

Pie CatLady GreyBird77 aptly defines three categories of "bad" movies. I liked "The Last Light" and will have no trouble remembering that I've seen it. It's a compelling psychological horror movie, a post-apocalyptic allegory. Seven survivors are trapped in a gloomy hospital following a mysterious event which bathed the outer world in intense light. No one seems to know what actually happened, but ferocious unseen monsters lurk in the corridors, waiting to attack and consume them. Strong characterizations give emotional impact to a drama that unfolds with more talk than action. Jack (Ed Quinn - look familiar? He played Jill Hennessy's boyfriend in two episodes of "Crossing Jordan") is the leader of the group, a strong anti-hero. Even as his deep character flaws become apparent, you're pulling for him to survive and escape the dark place that confines him. Noah (Edward Furlong) gives questionable advice, misguiding Jack and leading him to the ultimate reveal. What a marvelous glimpse of evil incarnate - a neurotic bureaucrat in a boring, tedious job. He has no real power and certainly no joy in disposing of the souls which have ensnared themselves in his domain. "The Last Light" intends to be dark and damning, and it certainly succeeds.

Jesse Boland Molly Hagan will always be Angel from Herman's Head in my mind, and I think the casting was an attempt at tongue in cheek attempting and failing for me by being too obvious. This movie is a very big mess that is just too obvious, and repetitive. Honestly I had to ask out loud at one point "We who Terminator boy?" as there was no sense of reality to the character played by Edward Furlong, and hardly any from the rest of the characters either. There is a lot of acting going on here, but it is the kind done in attempting to reach some form of egress from a bag which happens to be paper. The head towards the light shtick just goes on, and on. More even than my talking about it) I Enjoyed the first 5 minutes or so, it looked like this was going to be a good mind bender that would keep me guessing, however that quickly turned out not to be the case, and here we are now after a very over thought out ending, and so much less thought given to how they got there. Not recommending this to anyone, really there is nothing here that will make it worth your time. Some good actors wasted in what must have just been a money pit for someone. Move on I am going to.
