| Right At Your Door |
Multiple dirty bombs have been detonated in Los Angeles spewing out a cloud of toxic ash. As a husband waits for his wife's return from work, he and a handyman work to seal themselves up in the house. Meanwhile, the city is in a panic as phones are down and transportation is cut off. Isolated and unprepared the husband now has to make difficult decisions to protect himself as his wife returns home and chaos grips the city.
Right at your Door (2007) is a small budget disaster thriller that really hits home. Despite relatively unknown actors and a first time director this movie still manages to have great acting and maintain a grand scope while being a character driven narrative. Right at your Door brings the terror, panic and claustrophobia of a terrorist attack right to your door. This apocalyptic tale will make you think about your own survival should the unthinkable happen. Right At Your Door may just have you stocking up on duct tape and bottled water.
Some viewers may have a problem with the pacing, the lack of Hollywood special effects or the twist ending, but I think the movie brings home something special and I recommend it easily to fans of the apocalyptic and disaster movie genre. Especially if you enjoyed films like Testament, The Day After, The Crazies or On the Beach.
Available on DVD from Amazon.com
