??confusing??

i just got done seeing it. But i didn't watch it all. First i was too late then, I got too scared *just like me* so when i could tell it was coming to a scary part i'd change channels. But from what i saw, it was confusing. But again, i bet if i saw the whole thing it would be less confusing. I had to call Matt and Sara and Stewart so they'd be there if i got scared!
Sometime, i'm going to watch the whole thing. (with family or friends lol)
I just don't know where i'll find it...
Pretty good idea for the movie though. :-)

I love horror films and have seen this one plenty of times. I never watch them when I am alone, even the ones like this one, that I have seen plenty of times. The storyline is not confusing, but you have to pay attention. I am curious how the book would compare to the movie. Anyway, I hope you get another chance to watch it, I guess with "Matt and Sara and Stewart".

The original book is much, much better! I highly recommend it! I do love this film, and think Pamela Franklin is great in it! It is very similar to the movie "The Haunting," which is a much better film, but it well worth watching and quite creepy at times.

Thanks, is the book name, "The Legend of Hell House" or is it another name. I do agree the Haunting is much better, in fact one of the best haunted house movies I have ever seen. It gives me the creeps everytime, I love the beginning intro also which gets into the history of Hill House.
