Why It Crackles

Movie Details

Imagine if the Chupacabra showed up in The Amityville Horror.

- The suspense in this movie comes from more than just a spooky story. The creep factor is escalated by the fact that all of it is based on a true tale of weird, supernatural, possibly alien events occurring near Point Pleasant, West Virginia in the ‘60s.

- Richard Gere turns out a great performance as a man on a wire due to the tragic death of his wife and the supernatural occurrences that surround him. If you’ve watched him in romantic comedies or dramas it’s time to see Gere in a role that turns on him holding the suspense.

- Great Quotes: “It was like the universe opens up and points at you and says "AHH There you are! The happy couple, I've been looking for you!” – John Klein (Richard Gere)

“Whatever brought you there, brought you there to die.” – Alexander Leek (Alan Bates)

“Great tragedy on the River Ohio.” - The Mothman

- This is a film for fans of The X-Files, The Forgotten or Silent Hill. But more than just a movie, it’s a dramatization of a cryptozoological story covered on the TV shows Paranormal State, Sci Fi Investigates and Unsolved Mysteries.
