The conclusion also came through for me, with plenty of moments of suspense and surrealism thrown into the mix before its fateful finish. And in how many movies do you see Kevin Bacon’s name before the film title?! Not many. Usually he’s the fourth or fifth banana, but he’s the top dog in this one, and boy let me tell you, the man comes through! Kevin’s perfect for this role with his everyday dude quality, and solid acting experience striking all the right chords. Please Mr. Oscar, why not knock on Kevin’s door this year? 🙂 The kid is also pretty good in this one, although nothing close to Haley Joel Osment from THE SIXTH SENSE, and they could have cast a better wife, but all in all, a great time at the movies. Mrs. JoBlo literally bounced off her seat during a few scenes, and despite no major gross-out sequences, this film sure packed a handful of frightening moments, a great spooky story with a timely correlation to that other Bruce Willis movie (I guess you know which one I’m talking about by now), and even a moment of tender closure at the end. I wish they would have used the song “Paint it Black” from The Stones in a few more scenes, but hey, I’m just a bitch with a boner for that song, so what can I say! 🙂
