Mothman Prophecies, The

The Mothman Prophecies (2002)
Dir: Mark Pellington

A journalist investigates strange reports of a mothlike creature appearing in a small town.
An underrated film that is wonderfully written, acted and directed. Pellington brilliantly sets up an atmosphere of unease and a feeling that something terrible is about to happen. It starts out as an intriguing little mystery, but becomes something so much more by the time it reaches the stunning climax.
