Movie | The Others | Pass

Alejandro AmenĂ¡bar pays omage once again to Hitchcock in this non-gory horror/thriller starring Nicole Kidman.

Kidman is a single mom raising two kids who are afflicted with disorder that makes them extremely sensitive to sunlight in an old, mysterious British mansion.

What?! No clean, colorful walls or cheerful carpets with whimsical draperies? Nope. That would be a bit too...convenient.

Still, this is an edge-of-your-seat kind of movie that reminded me a bit of The Sixth Sense. Everything about it is expertly done and it's an adult (but not gross) creepy keeper!

Thanks for the recommendation, IP! One and half thumbs up and a Pass!
