My favorite part about this movie was the play they made on point of view. While the Sixth Sense (which everyone compares this to) was from the point of view of one "ghost" amongst the living, until the very end when they have the seance, this movie was based entirely on the experiences of all "members of the ghostly realm..hahaha.)" As a person (still alive..I hope) who has lived in a "haunted" house it was an interesting premise for me. Far more interesting than the 6th Sense because of the feeling I had of ongoing ownership of the house and the refusal to leave. I thought the whole movie was very creative. I actually feel a bit offended by all the people who call it a "rip off" because of the "surprise" ending. Really, all films are genre films be it romance, horror, action, whatever, and this one fits into the "ghost story" category, like it or not. The 6th sense was not the first ghost movie, nor will it be the last.
