for specialized tastes
The enthusiastic reviews here led me to watch this movie. While I respect the feelings of those who found this movie "haunting" and waited for years to see it again, I'd have to say this is not for everyone. If your tastes run to those old comic books with titles like Strange Tales, or maybe even TV's Twilight Zone, it may be for you. But for me, it was much too thin in plot and characterization. Never mind the premise, which of course flirts with the supernatural, there are other jarring notes in the story, such as the thirtyish protagonist's falling "in love" with the lady. Although he's well past that stage of his life, he behaves like a fifteen-year-old in puppy love, mooning around and telling her he wants to marry her. The ending was nice and romantic, I admit, when I could take my eyes away from the bad make-up job on the "old" man, but I didn't find the rest of the movie worth it.score /10
