One of the essential horror films

Rating: 10/10 (27 March 2005)

This is in the top 5 best horror movies made. REAL special effects, not fuzzy, computer-generated, animations. If you had the chance to see this in the theater when it was released, you will notice a difference between the home VHS version of 1982. Has anyone else seen the uncut version, 128 minutes long? The common version is 109 minutes (or 1 hr. 49 minutes) I saw it in the theater and rented the 128 version so I know it exists, but I haven't had any luck finding one to purchase. After you see the long version, you will realize how much is lost in those 11 minutes and the common version will appear choppy. Regardless, this movie will press you back in your seat.
