Incredible and Frightening
What an extraordinary film! This is my favorite type of horror movie - intelligent, realistic and stunning! No blood and guts, no monsters coming out of woods or closets. This is a horror film that I wish others would take notice of and create more horror stories in this vein.
I haven't seen this one in years - I finally bought the film to watch again - so glad I did! Outstanding!
In the end there are two ideas I've heard: 1 Purgatory - that is where Jacob is the whole time. 2 Jacob died in Vietnam and what we see is his dreams as he is dying. I'm torn between the two ideas - we do know Jacob did die in Vietnam but was it his visions/dreams OR are we witnessing his time in purgatory? I'm still unsure.
Well worth watching - even if you don't like horror movies - this one is NOT a typical horror.
10/10
