This movie scared the shit out of me when i was 9 but im not 9 anymore and now i see what it truly is and that is a piece of shit, sorry folks but it is a big stinkin pile of shit. I haven't seen the remake but I know for sure that it has to be better.
i have to give it credit, since this was one of the first scary movies i saw, and at the time (when i was 8) it scared the crap out of me. but in hindsight, the acting is terrible and it pales in comparison to the book.
Cheeeesy, lame and overlong.
The priest and detective storylines should've been taken out.
Ugh, some annoying performances! I was pretty proud of James Brolin though. Margot Kidder sort of.
The music is UNscary.

This one was boring as hell! I can't see why anyone would like this one as much as the remake.I'm sorry but just because its the "original" don't mean its better! Face it people platinum dunes can out do a remake better than a original!
This movie has a special place in my heart. It's the film that gave me my first real nightmare as a kid. My first horror movie that I remember seeing as a child too. One of the most iconic structures in horror, along with the Bates house (Psycho)!!!! Grab some p-corn & give it a look, but try not to scare Jodie !!!!

im borderline with this film, there are some things about this movie i really loved alot, and then there was some things i hated, so ill probably give this a 5 rating.
This film actually can fall into 3 categories. Hate it, love it or tolerate it. I fall in the tolerate it category. There are som really cool things about this flick that were very creepy. Mainly the films music and the look of the house. But, the acting is awful, even for the great Rod Steiger! And it never really flows like a movie should. The book scared the bejesus out of me more than the movie. But for all of it's little quirks it does have that classic horror movie feel and has a soft spot in my collection.
