Steve's day goes from bad to worse when he observes a woman riding on her horse, obviously distracted by her beauty he is shocked to see her suddenly ejected from the beast.

When a government census-taker (Steve Kady) is sent to a sleepy US town, he is bemused to find himself in a town that appears to be suspended in time. Almost entirely cut off from the outside world, the inhabitants of Rockwell Falls live an idyllic lifestyle, free from crime and violence and completely happy in their self-contained environment. After a very warm welcome, Kady sets about his task and is puzzled to find that the population of the town has neither increased nor increased in over 100 years. The population remains at 436. But Rockwell Falls is not the haven it purports to be. When a local man is killed in a car accident, his grief-stricken ...  Read the complete review

I was given this DVD as a gift, because I am quite fond of the lead actor, Jeremy Sisto. There's something about his dark curly hair and intense eyes that makes me watch films a little more closely if they have him in! Population 436 is a thriller, or a mystery horror. That's not my favourite genre of films but it's one that I'm happy to watch and that I do enjoy on occasion. This particular thriller is a straight-to-DVD movie, but I decided not to hold that against it as I have actually seen some pretty good films that have for some reason not achieved cinematic release. However, half an hour after this one began, I was almost certain that this was not one of ...  Read the complete review

Despite having read numerous review on Population 436 that were average at best, I still went ahead and rented it. There was just one reason that I had an insatiable urge to watch this film and that was Fred Durst, my youthful crush and visitor to many of my teenage dreams. I doubt there will be many of you who share my physical attraction to Durst, and frankly, having watched the film, the fire in me has started to dwindle. So really, there's little reason to watch the film since there is little else on offer in terms of the plot or the acting. The premise of Population 436 is simple and I'm not spoiling it by revealing that the population of Rockwell ...  Read the complete review

I while looking for a new movie to watch came across this one. The brief description of the movie is what caught my eye. A sleep little town that draws attention because of the simple fact there population has not changed in over a 100 years. How can that be. The cast is not any one that I have ever heard of before with the exception of Fred Durst of course. Not knowing any of them really though I can honestly say the acting was actually pretty good not being over done or under done. For once the acting in a horror thriller is good. The movie starts with a poor sap from the census, he is sent to try and figure out how its possible for this ...  Read the complete review
