Somehow I've never seen this movie.

AC, while your one-sentence-reviews challenge is an interesting one, I have to be honest and say I miss the other sentences you're not writing. Particularly as you've had some really good picks this year.

Having said that, however, I fully encourage you to stay your course with the rest of the 'thon.

I have also never seen this.

(One sentence comment! Except, not anymore.)

This is a great movie! The remake is dreadful and misses the entire point. The original is a slow burn of creepiness.

thanks for the honesty octopunk! point taken.

you and dcd should check it out some time; both mr. ac and i enjoyed it more than we anticipated. as a bonus, the women are real 70s eye candy (the men not so much).
