That is the on word that went through my mind as I left the theatre. Everyone's performance was great, but the one person, who literally had to carry the movie all by himself, was the kid. The kid, Haley Joel Osmont, did for THE SIXTH SENSE, as did HENRY THOMAS did for ET, HE DELIVERED. I don't think I'll ever get over the shock of the ending. Anybody, who has seen this, must of had the same feeling as I did.

I watched it all. What a GHOST STORY! I just couldn't believe the twist of the ending. How the one choice, we make, can effects the rest of our lives. I knew that the spirit needed some kind of way to go on and what better do it, then to take one of unsuspecting, innocent children. Then, I knew, which child was going to be picked, and his fate. Out of the 10 mark on the scale, I give it a 13, because no MINI SERIES will strike the fear in us as the ending did in this one.

When I first saw this movie, I first started to hate it because of the violence of abuse, but what got to me, was the music of the movie, and the acting that went with it. I, admit, a dream about a talking buffalo was a little weird, but what got to me was the music through the dream, and the VERY COOL performances of Elijah Wood, as the confused brother, torn between about what he knows, and what he can not say. Promises not to say as a special PACT with his younger brother, who tells him not to say anything to the mother.. A BRILLANT DEBUT of Joseph Mazzello, who moves you with the music, as he see his destiny, before it happens, of getting away from the King, the Abuser, by building a airplane, out of a toy wagon. Let me tell, nothing gets you like the end of the movie, and the younger brother is ready to take off the flyer, they built. One brother gives his favorite jacket, as sign of love to remember him by. Out of *****, I give this movie a *****.
