The fear jumps from the screen into your life!

Rating: 10/10 (19 July 2005)

This movie revolutionized scary movies. All scary aspects aside, this movie is directed brilliantly, but what does one expect from possibly the greatest director of our time. There have been many attempts at making a novel into a film but only a few actually accomplish. The consistency is not exact but it doesn't matter. Hooper has an affair with Brody's wife in the novel and dies in the end. The way he is brought into the film. he is too likable to die and to have an affair with Brody's wife would add irrelvance and an unneeded negativity to his character. The writer did a wonderful job placing together a great script without following the novel %100.
