Fear - Todesangst

I saw a part of this movie on a cable channel a LONG time ago and looked all over for the movie to rent it but couldn't find it anywhere. It turns out it was on Showtime and that was the only place to see it...I finally got to watch the whole thing and really was creeped out. I liked the whole plot and the way the killer and Ally Sheedy were in each other's heads.

I hope you enjoy it as much as I did, but I will add, in the past, I've seen movies that I found horrifying as a young adult or even late teen but as a more let's say mature? person now, found them ho-hum or ridiculous. i hope this is not the case with this movie.

As soon as the movie begins, we know how it's going to end. And yet "Fear" stays captivating the whole time. What makes it so interesting is the exploration of human emotion: the use of fear as a tool of communication. Yes, this is a movie about psychics and psychopaths, but it's also a movie about exploring the depth of human understanding.

I liked this movie, and I was freaked out when I caught it on Lifetime the other day. It has a really creepy atmosphere, good plot, and an excellent performance from Ally Sheedy, who plays Cayce. Cayce is a psychic who has helped the police track down kidnappers and serial killers for years. However, she soon faces an even tougher case when she tries to catch a serial killer who himself is a psychic. This has some creepy scenes with eerie blue lighting. Also, the beginning sequence is very creepy (I always feel shudders go down my spine when I hear the murderer humming while we watch the girl squirming in the backseat). I like this movie a lot, and I recommened that you go out and rent it, your video store should carry it.

The story was fantastic and scary as hell. You can feel the intensity and anxiety that the movie sends to the viewers. However, the ending was lacking impact. It seemed too rushed. It's worth watching for a good thrill. Very creepy

This is a film that has you on the edge of your seat from the first moment. You at times wonder to yourself wait a moment who is good and who is bad here. a very well done guessing game at the same time boo scare you film.

One reason I say it is so well done is because it is a made for t.v. movie and in my opinion not many made for t.v. movies are that well produced. However this is done in great theatre style well worth checking out if you are a horror/thriller genre fan. Ally Sheedy gives a great preformances going away from comedy and into serious here
