I am a horror buff , some would say horror snob.

I am not going to tell you what this movie is about because you don't want me too. I am being honest when I say I actually walked a way twice after about 25 minutes each time. I thought it was just another lazy horror that didn't make sense. I can not, not watch only half a horror movie no matter how bad I think it is, so I sat for the third time and finished the last half. If I had not finished it, it would have been a huge mistake and me call myself a horror buff (snob).

This movie is well written, well thought out and well acted, directed, etc. It is fresh and if you are into horror a must see. It won't scare you to death, but the creepy factory will stay with you. Top five horror for this decade and if you are a buff or just a movie watcher, I promise you a ride worth taking. I gave it a 9 because I had the gall to think the movie was lazy when I started it and it turned me into a liar.

This is a William Castle movie and if you don't know who he is then please look him up as possibly one of the best director, producer, screenwriters the horror industry has ever had. Hitchcock has real competition here.

This is a very well written and directed and more believable movie than most of our current talent in his category. Castle was known for his "gimmicks" as seen before this movies even starts. So he has lost some respect of movies goers. But not the real fans of horror.

On this film he uses one of his "gimmicks" at the start of the movie, but backs it up will a real horror film. I am a huge fan of horror movies in all the decades. If you want to see a movie that does not rely on a woman running and falling down because she tripped on a pebble, or the bad guy getting a small stab wound and "OK we can forget about him" so he gets up later. If you want to see a movies and bear in mind it is from 1959, that does not try to insult you just by watching it with predictable endings and lazy writing that makes no sense. Than watch this movie and then you will want to see the rest of Castle's movies.

Having said that I am a fan of stupid horror moves, but people like Castle and Hitchcock, we should all watch and know want real horror movies, be as it is in decades past should be looked up to and respected.

This movies is worth watching, it is not "Michael Mires" scary as in the first "Halloween". But it does deserve respect and I would like to see more of the true effort put into this movie to make it "scary" in its day, in new films.

But just my opinion, Oy
