" A woman who lives in a darkened old house with her two photosensitive children becomes convinced that her family home is haunted." www.imdb.com/title/tt0230600/I really enjoyed this movie. I found it to be extremely entertaining, and at times to be extremely suspenseful. They did a good job at keeping me guessing, and wondering what would come next. The whole atmosphere of the film is spooky, from the way it was filmed, to the backdrop of the Nazi invasion, to the actual house, and to those kids. Both of those kids were a little more than spooky. I also did not see the end coming at all. You'd think after watching The Sixth Sense I wouldn't fall for those type of endings any more. I mean I kind of guessed the old man and woman were ghosts, but had no idea Nicole Kidman and her children were ghosts, let alone had no idea she murdered them then killed herself. Yes, I think The Others was a brilliant movie, and it is one of my favorites.

you've beat me to the topic I loved this film. It was amazing, the athmosphere was great, really scary like you said, after the Sixth Sense I wouldn't have thought I'd see an ending similar to it so I was shocked. I thought the old guys were just trying to make the house look spooky to chase them away so when I found out that they were ghosts, and that Nicole Kidman and the kids were ghosts as well, I was really shocked. It was a perfect ending. One great amazing movie!

I really enjoyed this film. It's not your typical haunting house film, it doesn't rely on scary effects. It uses psychological horror and it does it well creating suspense and tension through the eerie atmosphere.
Yes, those kids were really spooky. I don't think anyone could of guessed who were the ghosts apart from the obvious ones.

The Others was a really good movie, and had a nice surprise ending - something you don't get very often. Also, Nicole Kidman did a good job in her role.
