Linkshoch Wonderful Movie
ChanBot i must have seen a different film!!
Dirtylogy It's funny, it's tense, it features two great performances from two actors and the director expertly creates a web of odd tension where you actually don't know what is happening for the majority of the run time.
Ginger Very good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.
Gblakelii Whereas animation purists may be a little disappointed that this film includes whole live action sequences, horror fans may want to add this to their viewing list. The movie opens with three young women in the midst of frivolity. It would appear that they sent for a witch, as when she comes into the room they show no surprise. She is a very traditional looking witch. Before long, they plead with her to read their palms. All is fun and games with them, none of this is taken very seriously. Then in walks the uncle! He is outraged upon seeing the witch and orders her out at once. She is very upset at this rebuke, and hence puts a curse on his box of matches, then departs. The old man is visibly disturbed from the encounter. The nieces then leave the room as well. The enchantment very quickly begins, with the screen filling up with the magic matches. Some of the stop motion effects created include: a horse; spinning windmill; U.S. flag; then some standard animation of a pipe smoker with real smoke shown. Stop motion returns with a stick figure on a tight rope, and the grand finale of a skeleton which may have given Walt Disney some ideas for "A Skeleton Dance" more then 15 years later. Switching back to live action, what takes place with the uncle, the returning nieces, and the box of matches makes for an inventive conclusion. Running time: 8.5 minutes.
