Terrible acting, screenplay and direction.
Good story, Not enough for a whole film
Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.
Tells a fascinating and unsettling true story, and does so well, without pretending to have all the answers.
Yes I know - this is not a great high class movie but it is one of scariest things you can watch if you are in right age (my first when I was in my 6-10 years young...the lady "almost ghost" scared a hell out of me and I saw her every time I closed my eyes back in days:) And second thing is a good soundtrack in this movie...so overall I think if you will watch it just like horror movie during night you wont be disappointed...But once you will start think about the whole plot construction you may find yourself at least confused :D Points out of 10: 1 for overall quality, 1 for soundtrack and 1 because I still feel nostalgic about it:) Wow, this is just my second review and I realized that to fill 10 lines is not that easy:)
Yeah,this movie isn't something special.The acting is not very good,the plot either.But for a true horror fan,that some times doesn't matter.The ghost of the mother is scary as hell!If you watch the movie late at night and don't care much about the acting or etc. of the movie then it should be very terrifying!If you want to be scared watch the movie but don't expect a masterpiece.If you want to see a masterpiece don't watch the movie.It's very simple.But remember:you only watch horror films during night.So in conclusion:If you like scary horror movies watch this late at night and you will be satisfy.If you don't like these film and you expect something like a plot ,good acting or something like that-skip that one!
I agree with all comments on this loser. I laughed through all of it. A real campy melodrama. Ruben Preuss must have had his eyes closed throughout the directing of this. Could he not see the stupidity of the story, characters and plot? Then to top it off having Barbie look alike, Shannen Doherty, try to act. Playing a professional psychologist/teacher, she walks around in a white suit through most of the film with a low cut neckline exposing the right amount of lace undergarment and cut up to the kazoo. In distance shots with her lab coat, also cut up to the kazoo, she appears to not have a dress on allowing her legs to be exposed and her high spike shoes. Tell me what professional person do you see walking around like that? Most other hospital personnel wear long coats and slacks. So much for our leading lady who can't act her way out of a paper bag. Then we have her leading man, played on one note by Costos Mandylor, who manages to do nothing. In one fight scene, he's instantly knocked out while our petite leading karate chops the villains down. Laugh laugh laugh! Even with stalwart actors with the likes of William Moses and John Diehl can't save this bomb. It's the kind of movie you can change channels on and come back later and see the same thing. Nothing!
The movie in itself isn't particularly special, just the average mumbo-jumbo mish-mash of psychology, occultism, crime and horror. There are dozens and dozens of such movies around, with nice graphics, spooky effects, thrilling soundtracks, silly plots and goofy dialogue: if you like the genre, you'll like this one too. However, this one comes with a bonus: the acting. It's *so* bland, *so* devoid of appropriate emotions, that the movie acquires a kind of "dreamlike" undertone. Hard to describe, but definitely entertaining!
