Member Rating:  
Filmed in London, the cable-TV movie The Sight stars Andrew McCarthy as American architect Michael Lewis. Like the youthful protagonist in the theatrical feature Sixth Sense, the reluctantly psychic Michael "sees dead people." In fact, he sees the ghosts of 21 dead people in a single location, the old British hotel that he has been hired to refurbish. Michael's disturbing "gift" ultimately leads him to the eight victims of a contemporary serial killer -- and, armed with the cryptic clues supplied by these restless spirits, the hero races against time to prevent murder number nine. The pilot film for an unsold weekly TV series, The Sight was broadcast October 29, 2000 over the FX cable network. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

    When I read that this was a cable TV series pilot, I was wary, but I gave it a shot because the plot line sounded intriguing. As my title suggests, it was better than I anticipated. The filmmaker chose some interesting techniques for 2000 that have since become common place in horror genre films. The acting - for the most part - was above average, and the sets/locations used were impressive. Even the use of the "video diary" to inject moments of humor was effective. Also, the plot kept you guessing until the end. I was wrong about the killer, and I am rarely wrong with this kind of film. Particularly eerie are the last scenes of the film, showing a devastated New York City and a shot of the twin towers, obviously bombed with part of the building missing. Worth a weekend rental . . .
