I would do anything for Michelle Pfeiffer... ANYTHING.

Happy Belated Birthday to one of my all time favs, Bob Zemeckis.

Well crafted supernatural thriller with solid turns from Harrison Ford and Michelle Pfeiffer.

I really can't say anything bad about Zemeckis' "hitchcock style" direction here. I thought a lot of the camera work was fantastic, the score was pretty cool and he created a ton of great tension. Ford and company were pretty decent in their respective roles, too. So there's that.

Unfortunately the movie was about an hour too long. They set you up with a great twist, but they gave it to you an hour in, and everything from there out was dragged out and frankly way too predictable to make the second half worth watching.

#horrorctober Film 7

Filme mit Geistern sind nicht so meine Sache. Darstellerisch und inszenatorisch ist das alles einwandfrei, aber so richtig gepackt hat mich die Geschichte erst gegen Ende. Mit zwei Stunden fand ich den auch zu lang.

Ok there are a LOT of red herrings in this movie but pretty good payoff (I kept dozing off because I'm so freakin exhausted from my schedule rn but I was still satisfied by the way this all turned out)

Spooktober: 14/31

Obviously movies have mixed genres but I felt this couldn’t decide which one out of two it wanted to be. But it had its good moments for sure.

I remembered a really scary scene from this movie when I saw it in theatres with my dad as a 9 year old. It was not very scary, but the subject matter of an abuser and a woman being convinced of her insanity stuck with me this time. Some subtle and less impactful Rosemary’s Baby moments, and some really funny CGI.

This was one of the first “horror” movies I managed to watch all the way through when I was growing up. Once a point of pride, but as soon as I saw “directed by Robert Zemeckis” I realized that this was no great accomplishment since the mo-cap aesthetic of his work since polar express is far scarier than this movie. 
A fine, unremarkable thriller.

take a shot every time michelle pfeiffer does something dumb

A suspense-thriller that would probably make Alfred Hitchcock proud, this won't appear on any best-of lists, but it is an engaging, tense, and fairly well-developed film that has an excellent performance delivered by Michelle Pfeiffer (Harrison Ford, for his part, was fine, but you can start to see hints of the detachment from his roles that seem to mark his current body of work). Like many (but not all) suspense films, this one doesn't feel quite as invigorating or sophisticated after the initial viewing, but it holds up well enough that I both still recommend it (especially around this time of year) and found enough to enjoy even upon a repeat viewing.

Loved every second of the movie. Great acting and very interesting story. The movie is very similar to Girl on the Train but so much better. And it has a lot of water in it.

I hadn’t seen this film since around 2002/03 but I’d always remembered certain scenes. I finally got around to rewatching it for my 31 horror/thriller films October annual marathon.

Director Robert Zemeckis takes a Hitchcock style approach with a supernatural twist which pays off and makes for a very enjoyable thriller. Michelle Pfeiffer plays Claire Spencer, a woman who’s only daughter has just left home for college and must now adjust to her quiet life at home, while her husband, Norman (Harrison Ford) is always busy at work. After witnessing domestic disturbances involving the couple next door and strange happenings in her own home, Claire becomes convinced murder is at play.
