Good scare, with no scare in it

Rating: Null/10 (11 July 1999)

At first, I've heard many things about Silence of the Lambs. So now I finally get to see it for myself.
The movie holds some very large strong points. The acting, especially by Anthony Hopkins is very good. Jodie Foster is splendid for the role as "innocent" Clarice Starling.
But the movie seems more like an intelligent thriller, then a movie made to scare people. The movie also seems like an episode of something rather then a movie. Because it has no real beginning, neither no real ending. But I guess thats another catch to the intelligence factor. Great movie really. But if you're really looking for a good scary movie, look in the horror section.
