    CAST: Elisabeth Harnois, Hilarie Burton, Amanda Seyfried, Shawn Ashmore, Tyler Hoechlin, Matt O'Leary

    DIRECTED BY: Daniel Myrick

    SUMMARY: A young girl uncovers a disturbing secret about her twin sister, who committed suicide just a few months before.

    MY THOUGHTS: This i... read mores my second time seeing this movie. Cought it on t.v. again, and still think it's surprisingly good for a t.v. made thriller. Wasn't really scary, but it had some really good twists. It seemed to be going one way and then took a whole different route. Had some good acting in it as well from some actors I really haven't seen in movie's before. Well besides Amanda Seyfried who has been making plenty of movies of late. But for the rest who are fairly unknown to me, they did a pretty good job for being a young cast.

    This is a mix of thriller/horror with a few recognizable faces in the cast. Not the film I was expecting it to be, quite similar to What lies beneath, Stir of echoes. If you like those you might enjoy this as well.

    A bit clichéd, but quite well-made for a straight-to-dvd production. On the whole though, it's nothing we haven't seen before.

    It can never get too obvious. Just when I thought the twist would turn one way, it goes completely in a different way..or else i'm losing my knack at it. Not really as gory or scary as I thought it would be but it still had some scenes that made me stifle a giggly scream. I get e... read moreasily scared alright, even if I know what's going to happen next. LOL.

    After Megan's sister Sophie's suicide, she finds out a secret her sister was holding & obviously the reason she could no longer live with herself. Shawn Ashmore (Iceman of the X-men movies) Hilarie Burton (of One Tree Hill) Amanda Seyfried (from Letters to Juliet & Dear John) & ... read moreR. Lee Ermey (Full mEtal Jacket & Sheriff Hoyt from Texas Chainsaw Massacre movie remakes) Megan & Her Friends go back to the vacation house a few months to a year later. Magan starts to see things along with a Keychain popping up wherever she goes no matter how she puts it away. This was pretty cool on the creepy erie bits. Esp. The glowing Eyes! Those sent a chill up my spine! Of course her friends don't t believe her but through this she make a friend in Nick who does try to help. Honestly I thought I might have a nightmare but unfortunately I didn't. ? yeah I'm sick I WANT to have a nightmare! IF that happens then the movie would be an A but apparently we give it a C

    I did not expect to like this at all. I just bought it because I knew of a few of the actors in it. This was a great film though, especially for a straight to dvd horror film. This movie was very original and did not disapoint one bit. This film also had a great twist that one wi... read morell be trying to figure out throughout the whole movie. Check this film out, I highly recommend it for any horror/thriller fans. This is a true hidden gem.

    Okay, I like probably a few other people mainly saw this only because it has Hilarie Burton in it,and I was kind of annoyed that she wasn't in it more, I mean it could totally be me but it seemed that she was in a scene and then she didn't come back until like three scenes later... read more. And her boyfriend in this was like a total jerk. But other then that lol, I really really liked it, like there were a couple parts that were a tad predictible but the end OMG! surprised the heck out me I mean I thought I knew where it was going and then BAM! that happens. But really it was a good movie. And an AWESOME cast.

    Boring... but if it had been 30 minutes long, it might've been better. The ending wasn't so terrible.

    This movie keeps you on your toes. It is a good thriller with suspence. It keeps you guess what is going on. I really enjoyed it.

    Standard supernatural thriller with a few good scares and a mostly likable cast. Average, but not terrible.

The pacing of Solstice drags the viewer to the finish line nearly half asleep ... [it] disappoints with its surprising blandness and heavy-handed mediocrity. Full Review
