Isolation (2005)
7/10
Best inverted cow film of the decade
1 November 2007
Warning: Spoilers
This is a dark, grim tale about the horrors of DNA experimentation on a muddy, hyper-realistic farm in Ireland. Interestingly, most of the stomach churning scenes come from things that happen thousands of times a day, either the difficult birth of a calf or the bolt-gun killing of cows. Makes me pleased I didn't become a cow farmer or an abatoirrist (if these are the correct terms).

I enjoyed it, thought a little too dark at times - darkness is fine, but you've got to see a little of what is going on to be scared.

************** Spoiler **********************

The ending was predicable from the moment a sex scene was included, I bet they shot an ending showing a face with gnashing teeth, and decided it was a bit too clichéd.
