Good film, any one else see it? Reccommend anything like it?
Seen it awhile back, and just caught it again last night.

good flick. its filmed at an abandoned mental institution only a few towns from my hometown. me and my friends used to go to the ground outside, smoke a few bowls and scare ourselves silly.
its supposedly getting torn down soon, so this is the last time most of those areas will ever be on film.

yeah, the ending did smack of a bit of laziness, but the film's all about the atmosphere anyway.
i guess it probably adds to it if you have actually been to some of those places and heard the ghosts that inhabit the area.

I live not to far from the abandoned Pilgram State Psychiatric Facility, and wandered around quite a bit in those old buildings, so yeh, checking these places out does add to the films.
I also live just a few block from the "Amityville Horror House".

Cool, Secret Window was decent. I'll have to check out those other ones.

secret window was fight club in the woods with no project mayhem (read: boring)

its been a while since i've seen this but i remember it was pretty disturbing at times.
recommended in the 'and now for something completely different' category.

i thought it was good when i saw it, but i'm not sure now. i'd have to see it again to be sure.
at least it's 10x better than most "horror" or "scary" films out these days.

Indeed. I like "psychological horror", or survival horror genre stuff, especially if it involves an insane asylum. Anythying that suspends disbelief, then offers a trick ending.
