Midwich, I saw it in the theater (where I couldn't easily get up and get a sandwich or something). I found it almost painful to watch, Nicholson's character was so unlikeable. It was almost deadly boring and oddly compelling at the same time. I still get a sort of icky feeling when I think of it because watching that movie felt like spying on someone and seeing all of the ugly little things that most of us would never want exposed. I didn't enjoy it, but the damned flick haunts me. LOL What does it mean?
edited to say: I adore Kathy Bates. It's really the reason I went to see this in the first place.

littlerockguy - ''Who's Afraid Of Virginia Woolf'' - the Taylor/Burton film - I enjoyed that! (Did you ever see Richard Burton in ''Equus''? - worth seeing if you haven't). I suspect you like the old black and white films, littlerockguy (so do ) - I assume you've seen, ''Whatever Happened To Baby Jane'' - Classic - loved that. Bette Davis was superb. Oh and delores Claiborne was a good film too.
Unbeliever - I quite liked Kill Bill 1 (but don't know why!) - but I thought the 2nd was awful.

BOUGHT ''The Village'' last week, and STILL haven't watched it yet - have been told a few times that the ending is ''WAS THAT IT?'
