Scary. Really scary.

Rating: 10/10 (8 August 2011)

As it was released way before I was born, in 'old times', I really didn't expect this to be as scary a movie as some of the more recent ones, say 'Saw', 'Dead Silence' or its own remake in 2007. However, upon watching it, I was stunned. This remains to be one of the most scary movies on my list, although I had least expected it. From the moment Michael kills Judith, to the time he falls to his apparent death, this movie carried with it unexpected and original moments of horror and suspense. With that said, I believe it IS a tribute to Jamie Lee Curtis in a way, as her mother Janet Leigh appeared in unarguably the scariest movie of the 60's, 'Psycho'. Great work by the cast and crew, and the directing body.
