Then there was "Dirty Harry" - remember that part? Which kind are you? Do you see signs? Or are you just lucky? Well punk? "The Natural" of course. "Poltergeist" - the TV and the girl. "ET" - the field and the swings. The music - pure Bernard Hermann in "Psycho". The enclosed space and the bad night - "The Thing". "Home Alone" - the frail boy is on top of things. "Catch-22" - the recurring flashback to a horrific moment. "Fargo" - the somewhat distracted top cop - a woman in a prowler. I am just blown away. The camera motion is on the same level as Scorcese. The sense of dread and apprehension is worthy of Hitchcock. I was really scared by this movie. The plot "holes" are irrelevant - this movie is about faith and fear and making it. -drl

ET - yeah all we needed were a couple of kids on bicycles to make it more obvious. The Natural, Poltergeist, Psycho, The Thing, Home Alone, Catch-22, Fargo - I haven't seen any of those movies. Ok, I've seen trailers for Home Alone and snippets of the shower scene in Psycho, but that's about it. I guess I'm cinematically challenged. or something. Have fun, Carl Forde

Then again, I think our walls are made from the salvaged hulls of exotic alien spacecraft so YMMV.
