Like a modern day Hammer House of Horror.

Rating: 8/10 (16 May 2003)

The Others is an above average horror that does not rely on Gore or American College kids being slashed to death but more on a good story and some very good acting.From very early on in the film you tend to know that something isnt quite right and there is going to be a twist at the end and you dont have to be a genius to work out whats happening.That does not take away from what is a good film that for me is spooky enough for the avid horror fan and the highlight of the film is the brilliant performance from all the cast from the child actors, Nicole Kidman and the brilliant Eric Sykes in the first straight roll i have seen him in. Well worth watching but i am a little suprised it made the IMDB top 250. 8 out of 10.
