I just watched this yesterday and I'm disappointed to say that I didn't like it as much as I thought I would. I normally love ghost and haunted house movies. For instance, The Changeling and The Others are high on my list of favorite movies. And I also love Richard Matheson's short stories. But this one just didn't sit right with me. Don't get me wrong, I'd still give it a 6/10, but I just don't see the masterpiece there. I think Mr. Barrett and his attitude turned me off and made me not like this as much. I also didn't like the reason the ghost stayed around for that long. It seemed kind of cheesy. I'm going to need to watch this a few more times and see if my opinion changes. I WANT to like it. Can anybody cheer me up and give me some reasons to get into this one?
