This film, in my opinion, is one of the most highly over-rated in the industry.

Rating: Null/10 (7 November 2002)

Yes, Jack Nicholson gave a stellar performance in this movie. Yes, there were some tense moments; tense, not scary. However, Shelley Duvall wrecked this movie for me. She is my least favorite actress. She is completely unbelievable as a terrified person. And, if you can't buy the supporting cast, then all you have is a standout performance by the lead and a second rate movie. The way she acts the part makes the viewer sympathize with Jack!
