So creepy, so good!

Rating: 10/10 (31 January 2011)

I watched this movie with my mom about a few months ago . . . And let me just say I was floored! I liked it, very intense & creepy, especially Anthony Hopkins as Dr. Lecter . . . that mask . . . that voice . . . "Closer, please. Closer" . . . , as well as the chemistry between him and Jodie Foster as Clarice . . . no wonder people are still terrified! There are parts that may make one cringe, particularly scenes with Ted Levine as Buffalo Bill . . . but that is the whole point of the film . . . it's supposed to scare you! But not in the way one might think! Yet if you have seen it, there's one thing that makes you wonder: What would the BAU team of "Criminal Minds" think of these two killers? I can only imagine . . . wow!!!! Anyways, when I watched this film, I was stock still whenever Dr. Lecter appeared on screen (really!) He's downright scary. So . . . to bring this review to a close, I liked this film overall. But that brings me to one last question, movie fans, to quote Dr. Lecter: "You wake up sometimes, don't you? Wake up in the dark, and hear the screaming of the lambs?"
