This movie had everything going for it. A horror-western with creatures that bury you alive and feed on your body while you are awake. A great setup for a truly terrifying film.
I will be honest, The Burrowers, could have been a really great film, but for several reasons, this movie just didn't accomplish what it could have. Basically, an old-west version of Tremors would be completely awesome, but for some reason, the filmakers decided to keep this one slow paced and predictable, not to mention that the creatures just weren't scary enough.
The one part of the movie that did spark something within me was the ending, and the unbelievable implications that silence can have on situations, and has had on events throughout history, mostly for the worst. If only the rest of the movie had conjured up something meaningful.
