Besides, its only 1.5 hours-clearly made for TV. The plot is good but the character development would need a lot of work to turn this one into a theatre production. Its one that definitely does make you think. It was better than I expected overall, however its always hard to get good acting out of a child and some of the lines seemed a little rough/weak either in their delivery or just in the dialogue. Ahhh the magic of film huh? As for the movie itself, I give it a high 6 to a 7 out of 10. People would run through doorways and come into "the next room" only to be somewhere completely different, or they would come running down a stair case from a room that wouldn't make sense with where they had supposedly come from. It was surprising to see how the floor plan of the house as it was in the movie changed from the way it actually is in real life. I grew up in "the crazy aunt's" house in this movie. It is a nervous and exciting thing to see a film on the screen in a space so familiar to your life as your own house.
