Though it has been around awhile, it is a great flick. My teen even loves it.

Tragic what TRULY happened to this little blond girl and her older sister in the movie - as each died shortly after the movie was made. I remember this movie, and it was quite good.

I have always been a fan of this movie. The plot is exciting and very captivating. The cast is perfectly picked. This movie isn't some big scary monster flick. Its very intelligent and believable. Its too bad Julian Beck couldn't have been in this one as well. He is an extremely great actor as Kane. I would definitely recommend this to horror fans or even fans of the paranormal.

I don't know anyone who has not watched this movie but if you haven't you should check it out. This is still one of the best ghost movies you will find.

This review is for the Blu-ray version. The TrueHD soundtrack is the best I've heard on any format of this film. Although the video is not the best I've ever seen on Blu-ray it is still very good for a movie this old. If you have the set-up to enjoy this film in HD and TrueHD sound then this is a must-see!

I am not sure who was actually freaked out by this movie but I found it jumbled and lame. Definately might have scared me as a kid but being 25 and it my first time watching it I was highly disappointed looked like something my friends and I could have made and acted in. I was shocked that it was listed as one of the scariest movies of all times.
