I have the ability to disturb others and this movie disturbed me. I felt very uncomfortable when I woke up, with thoughts of the hunting grounds still running through my mind. It's not frightening; it just flash freezes the marrow in your bones. This is more of a movie for dudes than chicks. Most of the guys I know won't be able to take their significant others and only one woman I know purposely subjects herself to disturbing material.
The 'antagonists' reminded me of the Yuuzhan Vong, from the New Jedi Order:

It's possible that the Yuuzhan Vong provided some influence, as the similarities are striking. But the Yuuzhan Vong were very alien, even in the Star Wars universe, since they came from a different galaxy.
If you don't mind the possibility of psychological damage, then I'd recommend Pandorum (no pun intended).
