Directed by David Koepp. Written by Koepp, based on the novel by Richard Matheson. Starring Kevin Bacon, Kathryn Erbe, Illeana Douglas, Kevin Dunn, Jennifer Morrison, Liza Weil and Zachary David Cope.
Plot: after being hypnotized, a man begins having visions of a dead girl.
Tom (Bacon) thinks the paranormal is all a joke, so he gets his wife’s friend, Lisa (Douglas) to hypnotize him. It works and suddenly he’s having grim visions of a 17-year-old girl named Samantha (Morrison) who disappeared six months ago. And that’s all I can say about that or I’d give away the whole movie.
I like that Tom’s wife (Erbe) doesn’t think he’s crazy when he starts telling her about what he’s experiencing. The acting is superb, especially from the cute little boy (Cope). It was entertaining, funny in parts, well-written and very realistic. It was a terrific story and a solid movie.
I suppose I could list my favorite movies here, but instead I'll give you a strange glimpse into what makes me TaraRomero.
1. I love comic books. I'm particularly into anything X-Men related and everything Harley Quinn.
2. My celebrity crush is Chris Evans (AKA Captain America). He's even more political than I am and he's not afraid to show it, plus he's really, really hot.
3. I love baseball and more importantly the Boston Red Sox, even though I've never even been to Boston. LOL
4. If I won the lottery tomorrow, after paying off my debts, I'd buy a smallish house somewhere in Southern California. I have got to get out of Texas.
5. My cartoon hero is Tina Belcher. Her and I share a soul.
6. I've been rescuing dogs since I was a teenager and firmly believe that fur babies belong inside and on the furniture.
7. I'm very much addicted to Hallmark Channel. I love their sappy movies, especially the Christmas ones.
8. I have 2 tattoos. An "E" on my ankle for my first lost fur baby. And a ladybug on my wrist named George after George Romero told me he liked it. May he RIP.
9. I'm a bit of a night owl. Not that I go out a lot, it's just that I prefer to be up at night and asleep during the day. I'm a vampire like that.
10. I have an unhealthy relationship with potato chips. My favorite are Herr's Sour Cream & Onion.
