Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Words Cannot Describe
Review: Easily the scariest movie ever made--nothing else even comes close. The growing terror is so subtle that it gets you before you even know it. I can never take a bath after watching this, and it has plagued my middle-of-the-night waking moments from the first time I saw it. Something this psychologically disturbing shouldn't be legal, but thank God it is. An absolute work of art. Perfect.

Rating: 4 stars

Summary: Satisfyingly Chilling
Review: Well...Looks like they made better chillers and thrillers twenty years ago than they do nowadays. The Changeling is a big hunk of a slice of intelligent psychodrama and supernatural spine tingling mystery.

The story isn't fed to the viewer like present day movies, and we're treated to a guessing game of mystery and sadness and fear and murder, all thrown against the backdrop of the still innocent 1980. How comforting the decor and architecture of the end of the 1970's, contrasting against the stark empty spaces of the wonderfully spooky and atmospheric grand empty house.

Is there anything more comforting than seeing 70's urban environments and then to be returned to the great big olde house from a century before, now worn and neglected and up for rent?

This film is a batch of home made soup, all the better for a nights' maturation. It'll tingle and nudge at your spine with pleasure and spice, and won't leave you feeling empty half an hour later.

Feel the fear and the nostalgia of that age of innocence, and all with a measure of intelligence that'll delight and scare you in equal measure. A real estate adventure in unexplored rooms that kicks modern hollywood thrills and chills into orbit.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Classy, stylish, and utterly terrifying
Review: This has got to be the most shamefully underrated horror movie ever made. Everything good that other users have said about this film is true. Changeling pulls off the task of scaring the hell out of you without the use of gore or excessive violence. It's also surprisingly beautifully filmed--taking full advantage of the natural and architectural beauty of Seattle and the American Northwest. You also couldn't ask for a better story-line, or more capable actors. I've watched and appreciated this movie many times since it was first released, and it still gives me the willies.

If you want to have a really enjoyable time being scared, don't miss seeing The Changeling. Just don't watch it in a big house all alone.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A Great Adult Horror Movie
Review: George C. Scott gives yet another memorable performance in this truly great, adult, haunted house, horror film. It starts slow and builds and builds until you're totally engulfed in it. It's also one of those movies wherein you just HAVE TO and WANT TO see it again and again. It's very refreshing to find a horror movie with no slashers or bloodshed. It's all suspense and a truly scary ghost. I'd recommend this movie to all horror fans, especially if you're an adult and want something more than gore. This haunted house story is great!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Too scary to watch straight through!
Review: This is one of those wonderfully suspenseful movies that's more suspense than horror. It's SO suspenseful that when it was initially released theatrically, I stayed to watch the lecture hall scene, then left. I'm in that scene, you see. It, and much of the campus stuff, was filmed at the University of Washington in Seattle. Now I'll have to get the DVD just to have that one scene.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: A perfect ghost story.
Review: If you can't stand stupid horror flicks like "Scream, While You Watch This Movie" or "I Don't Care What You Did Last Summer" then you will love this flick. George C. Scott stars as recently widowed man who moves into an old house inhabited by spirit of a child. No knife wielding lunatics here, just a good mystery involving who the ghost was and why he bangs around in that old house. Also, check out the aptly titled "Ghost Story" to see what a really good horror movie looks like.
