The grainy feel...Makes the Film!!!!
Modern, so-called, re-makes usually stink, I haven't seen the re-invention of this film, yet. I have seen this one though, and it's errie filming, in that 16mm hand-held camera type style, alaBlair Witch Project really added to the effectiveness of the film. This film was also made to allow your imagination to actually frighten you more than they actually showed. This film is ultra creepy, no doubt, and I wouldn't suggest watching it alone late at night. However, in all honesty, it's short on the gore, much like the Shining. In fact, by today's gore standards, it would probably only rate a PG-13. If you like imagining horror more than seeing it, get this film, if not, perhaps you may like the newer version better.
