Pay very close attention to the character Annie Wilkes and think about how much that relates to how you would act if you were to meet an author who did something you weren't necessarily happy with. I love this movie. It's horrifying without having to rely on gore/monsters/anything like that. Instead, the 'monster' is a regular human being. That's just... amazing.

okay well i am really doing the book since its not here.i did another account for the movie(i made another)yea well anyway. whole bunch of profanity a lot when you think it's actually clean for a few minutes it starts again,f word,s word,h word,g word,lord's name in vain,and the b word. one mention of weed(so far)and a lot of uses of saying the boy's you-know-what

I'll never look at Kathy Bates the same way again. In this film she gives one of the creepiest and most disturbing performances I have ever watched, as a psychopathic woman who traps a man in her house. Mostly because of her performance this film is very intense and creepy. As far as content goes, this definitely isn't for the kids. Some brief language, also brief but disturbing and gross violence, and just general creepiness. Probably only appropriate for teens and adults.

This movie is absolutely amazing! I could not have enjoyed it any more than I did. It's full of suspense, and you can feel Paul Sheldon's growing agony as you watch the movie. However, it is extremely violent, and I wouldn't recommend it for children under the age of 14. There is a particularly graphic fight scene, involving head-bashings. Plenty of swearing during this part, in which even the completely anti-language Annie Wilkes lets loose verbally. Overall, I'd give this movie 4/4 stars.

i think Mr.Swanson should play this movie ya
