Its a dandy of a flick.... caught me offgaurd when I rented it years back. I actually bought the Dutch import a few years back but its great to see this available here. Everyone should have this title in their collection!

It can be rewatched -even when you know whats going on because of the tremendous atmosphere you mention. Just a damned solid film.

Sounds like it may be worth a blind-buy. I've seen the original and liked it quite a bit ..

It is an original. You may be thinking of The Haunting?

Leonidas King · 06-19-2011, 04:54 PM

WHAT??????? One of my favorite thrillers ever! Such great news to wake up to

Scarriere · 06-19-2011, 06:11 PM

I hate to be negative but....I don't understand the love for this film. I thought it was the most boring and one of the worst films I have ever seen. IMHO of course.
Kudos to those of you who like it. You've seen something I haven't.

Great performances, fantastic production sets (with a very low budget to produce), clever ghost story, suspenseful at almost every corner, a great drama in general, engaging characters. What more could you ask for? On my first watch I was "Eh" but by my second viewing I became acquainted with its characters and story.

Scarriere · 06-19-2011, 06:33 PM

Maybe I need a second viewing as well. If it becomes available for rent, I'll consider that. You've got me intrigued...dammit!

shadowsip · 06-19-2011, 08:19 PM

I Love this film and will be thrilled to Upgrade it to Blu

Nope, I was thinking of this one .... "The Other"

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0069050/

Never read a synopsis of "The Others" so I always thought it was just a remake of the above. My mistake, obviously 2 very different movies except for the 2 kids part.... looks like a decent blind-buy I'll be picking up..

AKORIS · 06-20-2011, 12:21 AM

hope it's a quality release.... would love to upgrade my old dvd...

excellent ghost story

'The Other' is an amazing Movie, Wish more peeps would see it, Would look stunning on Blu too. Don't think Fox will ever put it out though

"The Others" is a dimension film not a fox film therefore part of the miramax library

lkmg · 06-20-2011, 01:26 AM

yes, a very good horror movie. not sure if the storyline is predictable. i thot it has a surprise ending when i finished the movie, didn't expected it.

DaiShuryou · 06-20-2011, 02:05 AM

Too bad that it is just a Walmart Exclusive

Moefiz · 06-20-2011, 02:11 AM

Good new...I love this film..I can finally get rid of my HD recording that's on my DVR.

aiman04 · 06-20-2011, 02:12 AM

I've been waiting for this! Me and my wife really love it. But looks like we're gonna have to wait longer.

Exactly, what's with this retailer exclusive? By doing this the studio is losing customers, especially international customers.
