I love psychological thrillers/horrors, so obviously I loved it. I remember it being pretty similar to the book also.

Dulls slightly on second watch -- or maybe simply with my age -- but is still a worthwhile and truly frightening film.

An absolute classic that should be a part of any Halloween horror movie marathon.

An all time classic of the horror genre. Slow and complex with some genuinely stressful moments.

A classic for a reason. I just love the ambiguity of it all. More questions than answers and that's what makes it great.
