DVD Reviews of The OtherDVD Review: creepy older movie... Summary: 5 StarsNot your typical Hollywood ending. You will think you have figured out the secret early on, but you will never guess what is coming at the end. There is implied magic, definite mental illness, murder, but the best is the ending that was to me a little unnerving.
(It was fun to see John Ritter, he looks so young! Even if only for a small bit.)
DVD Review: Stays with you long after... Summary: 5 StarsDisturbing, chilling and stays with you long LONG after the credits roll: If you have sufficient capacity for character empathy and sympathy as well as understand and appreciate the finer points of traditional/classic gothic story telling with its penchant for mood and atmosphere; subtlety and understatement, then this movie for you is a must-see. Trust me, if the events of this story ever actually transpired in ANYONE'S life they'd be scared s***less--regardless of any one-star reviews to the contrary. The only thing more chilling is the novel by Thomas Tryon that the screenplay was based upon.
DVD Review: Great movie, Fox blew it!! Summary: 3 StarsThe movie gets 4 stars --great film! The DVD gets 1 star --stupid idiots at Fox actually give away a crucial plot twist on the back of the DVD case! How brain-dead can people be? Oh, BTW, there are even some folks who posted reviews here on Amazon that give away the plot twist. So wait for this to show up on TCM (they show it once a year) or, if you buy the DVD, DON'T READ THE BACK COVER!!!! Especially if you've never seen the movie or read the book.
DVD Review: scary movie Summary: 5 Starsthis is a very good movie. keeps you guessing all the way to the end. great movie.a must have.. about a very disturbed little boy.
DVD Review: Chilling -- Stays with you Summary: 4 StarsI recently caught this movie one afternoon and it has stayed with me ever since. I'm a movie buff but somehow missed ever hearing about or seeing this movie (and the book).
I was familiar with Thomas Tryon and had seen "Harvest Home." Watching "The Other" gave me the same, intangible feeling -- uneasy, almost quesy. Both movies have an underlying feeling of dread from the very beginning. I wish I could better put my finger on that odd feeling Tryon's work gives, but maybe that's part of the reason it works so well.
Most of the reviews here tell you all you need to know so I'll just add this: if you haven't seen this movie, and you're tired of the present-day schlock -- definitely try to find a chance to see "The Other."
Description of The OtherLike most 12-year-olds, Niles and Holland like to get into mischief. The only problem is when Holland gets into mischief, people have a funny way of "accidentally" dying. Niles knows that Holland is responsible for all the gruesome accidents happening in the neighborhood - the pitchfork hidden in the hay, the severed finger in the box, the baby in the wine barrel. He knows but dare not tell anyone, not even his beloved grandmother Ada (Uta Hagen), that Holland is the evil twin?or is he?
