I think part of it was she was supposed to be bad. I mean she was kind of believable. Maybe I need to see it again :shrug: At the moment I think it's my favorite Kubrick film.

Um...not exactly, I meant her, but like something else; I bet you knew that! Smile

But I like being mean HAHA I'm such a dork in real life I would never be mean to someone Frown

If it matters I thought she was a better actress than SoulRat made her out to be. Maybe you should watch and see for yourself?

It isn't scary at all...at least I don't see how one could say it is. Maybe SoulRat can comment?

Neither do I that's why I'd say this isn't a scary movie. It doesn't have all kinds of people die or anything. You probably wouldn't like it because it's very Kubrick-like (it's a Kubrick film after all). It's got a lot of randomness and stuff that you might not enjoy. One such scene (perhaps SoulRat can fill you in on it) involves a guy dressed in a teddy bear outfit whistle

Oh I'm good.

I didn't think her acting was really that bad. I haven't watched this movie in a long time, I should watch again soon. This is one of those movies everyone should watch at least once, even if they don't like scary movies.

If schools were worth a Censored everyone would have seen a Hitchcock and Kubrick before graduation.

No, no, no - not fill her in on the plot, just that momentary scene near the end where you see the guy in a teddy bear outfit and another guy sitting in a chair HAHA

It was so random!

I will, I was a kid the last time I watched it all the way through so I probably wouldn't have noticed it, I mean I thought the power rangers were awesome at that time. I'll probably understand more of the movie this time too.

Wasn't Rear Window a Hitchcock movie? We watched that one in middle or high school.

Yes although I'd rank North By Northwest, Vertigo, Psycho, Rope, I Confess, Rebecca, Notorious, Suspicion, Frenzy, Lifeboat, and The Wrong Man as better Hitchcock films. Still good though.
