Sara's Thoughts-- I found this movie to be an creepy and disturbing movie, right up until they killed the kid. After that I hated it especially when the kid started talking to his dad in that creepy little kid voice *chills* anyway, the movie had an interesting plot with a stupid ending, but what I don't seem to get is why Louis doesn't listen to poxcow the twelve thousand times he tells him not to do something. Even before anyone died he told him "not to go beyond the barrier" and what does he do...exactly. I can't even believe there is a sequel to this movie, mostly cause everyone died. Wait, the little girl was still in Chicago so I guess it would be about her grown up and going back to this creepy town only to bury half her family in the Indian burial ground and not listen to her dead family telling her not to bury her new dead family down there....*cough* sorry I-uh-anyway it was an interesting movie and I recommend you see it for yourselves.
Thanks & Stay Shiny

Ben's thoughts -- This movie was remarkably similar to the book, and even though I read the book already, it was still really creepy ... like, it's one thing to read a book and imagine it for yourself, and an entirely different thing to see how another person imagines it and turns it into a movie. While the plot was very similar, they explain a whole lot more in the book, so if you're gonna watch this movie, I strongly suggest you read the book first. I have absolutely no idea how in the world they are making a sequel. All in all ... pretty good movie, as long as you've read the book.
Better in Red,
