Mr. Serling would be pleased.

A welcome change of pace from most contemporary scary stories, where the shocks come with all the subtlety of flashers jumping out of park bushes.

It's obvious that Amenábar is trying to subtly build layers of ghostly tension, but man, till it nears the climax, this movie crawls.

A tantalizing spine-tingler.

Good but creepy; may be too intense for some.

Bumpy at first, with a few too many clichés and an awful lot of doors opening and closing. But by its final image -- a beautifully fading portrait through a window -- I was swept in.

A downbeat and brutally effective mystery...

It's atmospheric, stylish, and spooky. The plot is well thought-out and its secrets and mysteries are unveiled slowly. Unfortunately, it is also cold, distancing, and moves at a glacial pace.

The Others is a modern horror film with an old-fashioned touch, relying on suggestion and suspense to generate fear.

... a handsome, elegant film that favors mystery and shadow and the hushed fear of what's behind that locked door over violent spectacle.
