Cheating is permitted in this case because IMO it's a really interesting movie, all about aversion and having to deal with your aversions before you can get past them. Very Buddhist flick, for a scary movie. :-) When it first came out, a reviewer in Los Angeles really lit into it. He wrote a *scathing* review of the film, ranting up one side of the righteously offended wall and down the other. The critic said that the film was just the latest example of the "blood and gore" horror flicks, and then he went on to disparage the whole genre. The thing is, there was *no* blood and gore on the screen during the movie (or almost none). The screenwriter and the director just made you see it in your head. This supposedly-hip film critic was so unaware of his own perceptions and how they worked that he really came away from the film convinced that he'd seen it onscreen, when he hadn't. Fascinating phenomenon, in my opinion. ------------------------ Yahoo!
