The twists in this movie are crazy awsome. It's a nice break from all the stupid torture movies that have been coming out recently.

The sequels aren't sooo bad...but go with your gut and stick with the original!

Have you checked out:

Session 9
Devil's Backbone
The Night Of The Eagle
The Haunting (original)
Les Diaboliques

I think you would like them.

As for horror films having no replay value. John Carpenter. George A. Romero. Dario Argento. Alfred Hitch****. All these directors demand repeat viewing to grasp all the various intricacies that their films posess.

Can you believe they censor cock and not pussy? Discrimination I tell you!

Anyhoo, you can't ever recreate the first experience with a horror film of this type. Well actually I'm talking out of my ass, you can't do that with any type of film.

Thanks for the recommendations, I'll try to avoid the ones with the "occult" tag though...I'm not into that.

Devil's Backbone is None other than Del Toro. Night Of The Eagle is an early 60's low budget British film that is very suspenseful and uses a myriad of camera tricks and cinematic sleight of hands to freak people out.

I haven't seen too many Del Toro films, but what I have seen I love. I'll have to check out Devil's Backbone!

I honestly have been looking and there aren't as many even watcheable ones as there are garbage versions.

I will say in the spirit of Lovecraft, Frank Darabonts adaptation of "The Mist" is brilliant. it pulls no punches and has the spirit of John Carpenter's The Thing coursing through its veins.

9/10
