Ratings and reviews

This is my favorite movie, however the trailer is definitely deceiving. It's a psychological experience, not an action ghost story. It really makes you take a second to think about things, and empathize with troubled Henry.

1 of my top 3 movies, you really should give it a try. Be aware though, the trailer makes it feel like it's a bit of an action flick and it's not. it's an amazing psychological journey.

This has been one of my favorite movies for years. It's one of the very few I have in my special collection and am able to watch countless times. Heartbreaking, subtle, poignant, thought provoking. 10/10 in my book.
