Excellent movie; avoid previews

Rating: 10/10 (6 August 1999)

This was one of the most genuinely scary movies I've seen in a long time, all accomplished without millions of dollars in special effects. It would have been even scarier if I hadn't seen the previews, but I suppose they have to get you to the theater somehow. I thank the movie critic at the Houston Chronicle (the local newspaper) for giving it a thorough, dead-on review without any spoilers. Go see it as soon as possible, and don't let anyone tell you anything about it that might spoil the plot. What, are you still reading? Go, go, go!!!
