You have to see it once

Rating: 7/10 (25 March 2009)

Even though the special effects aren't great (although hilarious in how bad they are- even though they were probably good at it's time), the Technicolor looks really fake and bright, the filming isn't the best, the sound is a little dodgy, this movie is pretty creepy and is worth seeing once. Nothing too scary happens until a quarter the way through, but it's done so we can connect to the characters and grow to like them. The plot is pretty thin, but an original and memorable one.
Bottom line: technical aspects are terrible (compared to the stuff we have out now), plot is thin, but the ideas, script and execution are very original and clever! I was left on the edge of my seat in suspense at some parts- and that hardly ever happens to me.
It's hard to rate this because of the time it was made and the lack of re-watch value, but I'll go somewhere between 6-7.
