Rating: 5.0
Brilliant horror movie, a classic that sets the bar high
Hollywood has often attempted to capture the angst of mothers and parents alike, when recreating plots of devil possession and similar storylines. Down to the drips of water, the chocolate mouse scene, the way the meat is flipped in the pan, this movie is a true classic. I first watched this with my mom, who was a huge horror fanatic. I must say, that although I am not a fan of gory horror, the music, subtlety and visuals of this earlier entry in suspense/supernatural thrillers sets the pace for the industry. Many movies have attempted to replicate its atmopheric power, but this one remains realistic and terrifying-even today. I wish they'd restore it and put it on Blu-Ray with plenty of extras!
