"This house is ours."

Rating: 10/10 (9 January 2002)

This creepy and uncanny horror movie has to be one of the best horror films of 2001.It's an old-fashioned haunted house film which reminds me such movies like "House on Haunted Hill"(1958),"The Haunting"(1963),"The Turn of the Screw"(1992)or "The Woman in Black"(1989).The acting is excellent(kudos for Nicole Kidman-she is brilliant!),the music by Alejandro Amendbar perfectly sets the mood,and the atmosphere is deliciously creepy.Add to this a number of really effective shocks and we have a winner.Instead of computer graphics and gore we get suspense and incredible tension.The ending is extremely surprising!10 out of 10-a masterpiece!
