An incredible film

Rating: 10/10 (21 January 2000)

First off, Haley Joel Osment (plays Cole) is one heck of an actor. His performance rivals that of Linda Blair in "The Exorcist" and Henry Thomas in "E.T.". Osment brilliantly plays true horror and fear and I found it hard to believe that he wasn't truly haunted by unknowing ghosts. The film is a visual masterpiece. The use of the color bright red is so perfect and downright spooky that I can't see that cinematographer not getting an award. The story itself is great, but the final touch is the complete horror of the idea that you could be dead and not know it. Rent, buy it, or watch it and think about it.
