Irate T @IrateTyrant Nov 27 BABA-dumb This was a chore to get through. So many movies mix children and horror, and so many are therefore so boring. Children are very rarely scary. They just wander around slowly with sticky hands crying about snacks and random things they consider their toys. That's literally what happens in even this "horror" movie. There are only a couple saving graces; one unforeseen jump scare of an inanimate object, and compelling black & white cinematography. Otherwise, the stakes are nonexistent, and the story just waddles around like an unsupervised toddler. Oh, one thing that was noteworthy that also speaks to how stupid it is to think you can make interesting material without carefully plotted out themes about children: there is a line of dialog in the movie by the lead actress; "I'm at sixes and sevens" (she says when she's very confused). Further proof that children today are ripping off super-old ideas! Nothing unique at all! Just a dumb generation coming up today!

See more Alejandro E @Alex970 Jan 24 From the ghost genre, the plot shines with the use of uncertainty, creating a surprise factor as one waits to see what is going to happen. Not for nothing did it serve as a reference for The Others (2001). See more Alec B 02/27/2024 The more the movie digs into the ambiguity around the haunting the more eerie and unsettling it gets. Also, this is probably Kerr's best performance. See more Read all reviews
