i liked it. when it first came out it scared the living daylights out of me (but dont take this to heart as im an easy scare!). It has pretty good graphics for its time, the acting was so-so, but it some how pulled itself away from that and turned out to be a good movie. If it was placed in front of me right now i'd watch it....its good, but if i had the choose i wouldnt buy it myself...its one of those movies where i wouldnt be disappointed if i got it as a gift but i wouldnt spend money from my own pocket to own it.

Sorry to all those die hard fans out there...but i do like it! its a great movie!

Ciao

among my oldest friends i'm notorious for bad predictions (such as: "madonna will be a one-hit wonder - opps). one of my big bad predictions came after seeing the Frighteners that "this will be bigger than ghostbusters". damn, i suck!

If guys pick up the Director's Cut DVD, definitely watch the commentary. Even though he's talking to himself, it's really one of the best out there. Peter Jackson is just an all around awesome guy.

whatever happened to her?

Whatever happened to Trini Alvarado (The Frighteners)? And how come Trini Alvarado is a girl, while Trini Lopez (singer, "Lemon Tree") is a guy?

In May 2014, she appeared in the episode "Forget Me" of the single-season ABC series Black Box, her first acting job in over four years
Looking at Trini Alvarado's face was the only thing I enjoyed about Frighteners. I really didn't like it. I didn't think it was funny, so that's pretty much it, cause besides nice looking FX, it was extremely cliché. I'm almost always bored or annoyed with the wacky runaround town films.

like many

Like many child stars, Trini Alvaredo wasn't as good as an adult.

I'll bet it was a blast for Dee Wallace to act in, because she must have been sick of always playing good girls.

I really really like the film, but im a huge fan of both Fox and Jeffrey Coombs. I wasnt suprised to hear that at one point this was possibly going to be a Tales from the Crypt film, it really feels like one to me.

One of my fave things is the bloopers theres parts where Fox forgets what film he is in and starts shouting ''DOC''

Despite there being some dark dark stuff in it the film feels very very like a introduce the kids to real horror sort of thing.
