John Klein (Richard Gere) had a perfectly happy life. He had a great job as a reporter for The Washington Post. He had a beautiful and loving wife, Mary (Debra Messing). And they were about to buy their dream home. But something caused Mary to crash the car one night — something she saw — and when the doctors examined her head injury, they discovered a serious tumor that took her life almost instantly.
Two years later, John is on his way from Washington to Richmond, Virginia when his car breaks down, and he finds himself hundreds of miles off-course — in a small town in West Virginia, where his appearance is just one of the many strange things that have been happening.
John suddenly finds himself in the middle of a mystery involving normal people who are starting to see unusual things — things that seem to be the exact same moth-like creature that Mary saw before her death. Some are even somehow able to predict huge tragedies in other places around the world.
I swear I will never sleep again. Ever. After watching The Mothman Prophecies, I’m afraid of the nightmares I’ll have if I fall asleep. But, then again, I’m afraid of being awake, too. Because you never know what you’ll see what you’re wide awake, either.
The Mothman Prophecies is a terrifying movie — not graphically so, but psychologically so. This isn’t a movie that’ll have you covering your eyes, afraid to see the blood and gore on the screen. Instead, it’ll mess with your head so badly that you’ll never again look at a car’s taillights without feeling an eerie chill.
The fact that The Mothman Prophecies is based on actual events makes it all the more terrifying. It’s an excellent movie, but if you’ve got an active imagination like mine, be warned: this is one movie that you’ll never be able to forget.
Kristin Dreyer Kramer has been writing in some form or another (usually when she was supposed to be doing something else) since the ripe old age of ten—when she, her cousin, and their two Cabbage Patch Dolls formed the Poo Authors’ Club. After a short career in advertising, Kristin got sick of always saying nice things about stuff that didn’t deserve it—so now she spends her days criticizing things, and she’s much happier for it.
Since creating NightsAndWeekends.com in February of 2002, Kristin has spent her life surrounded by piles and piles of books and movies—so many that her office has become a kind of entertainment obstacle course.
As if her writing and editing responsibilities for N&W.com weren’t enough to keep her out of trouble, Kristin also hosts a number of weekly radio shows: Reel Discovery, Shelf Discovery, and On the Marquee. She’s also a proud member of the Broadcast Film Critics Association (CriticsChoice.com), the Central Ohio Film Critics Association (COFCA.org), the Online Film Critics Society (OFCS.org), and the Women Film Critics Circle (WFCC.Wordpress.com).
Kristin lives in Columbus, Ohio, with her husband, Paul, and their daughter, Anna. She welcomes questions, comments, and fan mail at kdk@nightsandweekends.com.
