Truly haunting imagery

Rating: Null/10 (28 October 2002)

Not having seen the original, I can only comment on this film, which I thought was perfectly executed. It was perhaps too strong for a mere PG-13 rating, as even my wife, who has grown to love horror films, nearly had to leave.
A little cheesy at the beginning, perhaps, but otherwise flawless -- I've never seen a film do so much with simple images. A chair, a ladder, a fly -- it left me fully, delightfully creeped out. And discussions of perceived or hidden meanings will no doubt continue for a long time.
