Ratings and reviews

Love the movie love Sean Connery and even now love the ole time special effects in this classic. I played it every year for the kids and now the grandkids, even though it's a little slower than some of the new movies my grandson looks forward to watching with me. Movies the whole family can watch together are a treasure.

I saw this movie as a kid when it came out, and the banshee and death coach horrified me. I was afraid of it for years. How funny. I just rewatched it. Charming acting including very young Sean Connery.

Great memories as a kid, fun movie, love the Banchy, she used to scare the crap out of me! The good old days.
