Scariest film for years

Rating: 10/10 (13 September 2002)

Tonight I'm still in shock, after sitting through "Signs". This has to be the scariest film I've seen for years ! After a relatively ordinary opening, the film gradually builds to a genuinely terrifying climax.
Based on the traditional principle that what you don't see is often far more scary than what you do the director masterfully wrings every last drop out of his material and ties up all the clues to produce one of the best films of the year.
The whole of the relatively small cast is just excellent, and Mel Gibson has never been better. However, even he is acted off the screen by his young co-star Abigail Breslin.
Tell all your friends to go and see this movie - just don't do it alone !
