Yeah, I overlooked that film. What was I thinking?!
I just love the way Kubrick filmed this movie. It’s incredibly stylized. I think that’s why I like The Sixth Sense too. It’s not just frightening, it’s beautiful at the same time. I think that must be incredibly difficult to pull off. Much easier to just throw a bunch of blood at the camera, which is not really scary so much as gross.
I was never into the slasher films of the 80s. I thought the first Nightmare on Elm Street was pretty good, but that’s about it.
