So, I guess after....(spoilers)


...the house started collapsing, and creepy ghosts tried pulling me into the basement, I probably wouldn't go back in that house. In fact, I'd have probably left after the toy tractor moved and dinged by itself. That would be enough to totally freak me out.

Yet, this teenage girl just accepts her father's admonition, as teenage girls are wont to do, and then goes further and tries to draw out the ghost.

I'm sorry, but that was a real weak point in the plot structure.

I'd have run all the way to Canada and not looked back if that had happened to me.

Apparently, the ghosts just happened to encounter the bravest teenage girl in the world.

Well, clearly she had to be brave, otherwise the movie would have ended half way through ?

Even if she'd taken the car how far would she have got? She had no money, no valid drivers license and her parents would have reported her disappearance to the police so within days she would have been dragged back home.

Why do people so frequently get told to read the book on a movie database?
