(Although not as bad as Polanski's, IMHO.) Some of my fellow Cinephiles weren't as electrified as I was the first time I saw Don't Look Now, but that's just the nature of watching film with a group. I think "The Orphanage" was this year's big hit among our horror movie screenings, just as "Suspiria" was last year.

Hopefully this film will not be lost on a new generation of horror fans, but sadly this pacing and style of horror film is most likely to not find favor with the "Saw" crowd.
