Something that I say would be considered a spoiler, so if you are planning to see the movie on DVD or HBO, don't read my post.
I saw it, Melissa. It was a pleasant diversion for a Saturday afternoon. I took my niece to see it. We weren't that scared. Strange how someone with all the love and adoration of the community and of his family would have such a wicked obsession, huh? And the trait was evidently inherited? I think they left it open for a part two.
I saw it in the cinema today, I got free tickets, it is coming out next week in Holland. It was very dark and unpleasant but strangely fascinating too. I thought Kevin Costner was excellent (I used to be a huge fan of him in the Dances with Wolves days...
) and William Hurt was very good too. There were some twists and turns that I didn't expect.

What did you think of the ending? I think they added "It's just a dream" sequence so they could leave it open for a sequel! I actually jumped up in my seat when she stabbed those scissors in his neck! LOL! I had completely forgotten about the warning about her wanting to take over 'the business' , it would have made a much better ending!
