A HORROR MASTERPIECE

Rating: Null/10 (27 September 2003)

because i love this movie so much, i will keep my feelings of this film to a bare minimum...
this is one of only a very small handful of movies that i deem truly scary. superb casting, acting, camerawork and effects make for a movie way beyond it's 1973 time stamp. this movie still stands the test of time and is THE standard by which all other psychological horror movies will be judged.

if you like the performances in this film, watch "Requiem For A Dream" which co-stars Ellen Burstyn. not a horror film but absolutely disturbing in it's depiction of the horrors of drug addiction 11/10 for The Exorcist- an all-time great...
