You See It Before You Die...
I first saw this movie about 3 weeks ago on DVD in a 5.1 surround environment. After I watched the fist 2 scenes of this movie I nearly crapped my pants(especially after the scene where the TV turned off and in the dim black reflection on the TV screen you see somthing run away quicky) and my wife, Barbara, practically had to have her hands pried away from her face. It was like the beginning of Saving Private Ryan, except instead of enemy soldiers it was an evil, believable, poltergiest(or something like that). after the initial scenes the scare-factor lessens a little and is more watchable but the movie is still very good and intelligent and will take you 3 to 4 watches to fully understand(at least it took my dumb ass that long). This is a good movie, I've sen it 3 times now, worth a purchase, very much in the vein of a David Lynch or Terry Gilliam Directed film. Highly recommended. You will be afraid of the dark for a little while, but it will be the best afraid feeling you ever had.
Or, at least that was my take on it.
