“What’s the worst that could happen?”

Well.

Hold my Minute Maid.

This was my favorite movie as a kid and after rewatching it for the first time in over a decade, I completely understand why.

The opening still creeps me out. The humming. The kid casually having full conversations with absolutely nobody while everyone else goes about their day. And the hypnosis scene? Still fantastic. Something about it gets under my skin every single time.

Kevin Bacon is really good in this. What starts as curiosity slowly turns into obsession, and he completely sells that descent. By the end, he's chasing answers with a level of determination that's honestly a little concerning.

The atmosphere is probably my favorite part. Perfect for a dark, rainy night.

I’m still not entirely sure why orange juice was such a major character in this movie, but I respect it. I love orange juice too.

Kid me was onto something with this one.

god i love kevin bacon. 

this is such a gem, it's understated in terms of horror but it uses its small range to the absolute fullest. It's a grounded and realistic thriller that's simply about a man losing his mind in an attempt to find some sort of purpose in his life. Yes it's a ghost story, but there's so much about it that's just very real and that's what makes it so good.

A great performance from Kevin Bacon obviously, but the supporting work from Zachary David Cope, Kathryn Erbe and Jennifer Morrison is also more than worth talking about.

Lamest excuse for a psychological horror i’ve seen, no exciting scary stuff, bland characters that act like high schoolers for some reason (grown ass people), the twist was just really uninteresting and kinda predictable.
