The Objective (2008) 6/10

Starring : Jonas Bell, Matthew R Anderson, Jon Huertas
Director : Daniel Myrick
Running Time : 86 mins

A Special Forces team meets in Afghanistan are given a mission to track down an Afghan cleric called Mohammad Aban, but as they head into the mountains and start to see and hear some very strange occurrences, and talk of a curse starts up, they soon start to realise that the mission they’ve been sent on is far from being run of the mill.

This movie was a little slow, and was very weird. Quite why the American government were after this cleric is never really explained, although if they had heard about his powers they probably just wanted to exploit them in some way. This has a ring of classic sci-fi about it, but it isn't handled or executed quite as well as it could have been.
