What is it about?, 9 July 2005

I really didn't enjoy this horror movie,in fact i don't even suppose it is one.Though,you can see once more how talented and breathless Lauren Bacall is and therefore,the child-players have an amazing performance.It is a different kind of adaptation.If you think of seeing a horror movie like 'The Shining' or 'The Pet Cemetery'i say you'd be disappointed.While watching it,you try to get the idea why the kids hide their secrets and why ms.Bacall is so evil.But the movie never answers them at all.The ghost thing in the movie is never scary,maybe funny!Antonio Aloy dad his worst,i think.Nevertheless,some surprising scenes do exist like the yelling of the kids and the appearing of the mysterious ghost woman.
