Mind Blown

I got this movie when i was a kid. Since then, i have watched this movie around hundred times by now. A great story with great acting. It is the kind of movie that makes you want to watch it again and again and oh boy as a kid, was it scary. If i have to make a list of my top ten favorite movies of all time, this movie will be among the list.
