The Others

Can a movie survive multiple viewings when you already know the twist? The Mikes are about to find out as they discuss the 2001 gothic-horror film, The Others, starring Nicole Kidman and Christopher Eccleston on the penultimate episode of Forgotten Horror!

Listen to the episode as Mike Butler and Mike Field talk about how knowing the big twist at the end of the film harms this film in many ways, but in other, similar films, such as The Sixth Sense or Stir of Echoes (an episode the Mikes did way back during season 1) are still infinitely re-watchable, perhaps even more so, by knowing the twist. That being said, this film has great mood, camera work, and acting.

So, grab your proton packs, please notice the ghost traps to your left and right and that at Forgotten Cinema, busting makes us feel good.
