The acting is not that bad, to label it third rate acting is clearly exaggerating, I thought Leon's sister Ursella acted very good , especially in the sequence where she is having an argument with her boyfriend over the poetry her brother has just read to them, And as she hears Leon run down the stairs she quickly changes the subject and try's to hide her emotions and says :'' Would you like another drink'' I dont know if you all remember the scene I'm talking about, but her acting was so perfect in that sequence. That being said, I did think the boyfriends acting was a little shabby but hell being a low budget flick that kinda thing can be tolerated. As for the dummy, no he was not intended to scare you, anyhow it didnt scare me, the only emotion it evoked for me was an eerie feeling in the sense that its very bizarre to have someone project his alter ego in a doll through ventriloquism. Like I said though it wasnt scary, just very eerie in its own way. And as for the sisters age, we all know she is actually older than what her character is, but didnt you know that in most movies people playing kids in their late teens generaly are over 25, so who gives a beep really.

that wasn't a nurse, that was their mother. You dont seem to understand this film at all. That's unfortunate, if you stopped looking for it's flaws you might catch it's subtleties.

The book isn't great, but IMO it's better than the movie. In the book
the boyfriend dies, and Ursula puts her brother in Pin's wheelchair. It's clear she hates him for killing Stanley, rather than feeling sorry for him as it seems she does in the movie. Leon mentions feeling numb at several times in the book, and he seems to be turning into Pin before he at last believes he IS Pin.

I am going to have to agree.
Poor acting, poorly made and awful corny music.
I swear, some people seem to think that just because something is old, that automatically makes it a "classic"
No, it was sh!t then and it is sh!t now lol.
