DVD Review "THE SKEPTIC" Score C+ 77%
What started out as a haunted house flick quickly blends into a movie about the fractured memories of a man. Tim Daly stars and there are some moments when you wish he'd work on his acting a bit more (ie. His 'scared' screaming is really bad). Tom Arnold's part is both confusing and odd. The whole story looks like its going to be one about a ghost in the home terrorizing anyone there. Instead it turns into a movie about mommy issues and the Skeptic is quickly turned into a doubter then a believer. Only about one moment of jolt scare to be found in this one. Overall it falls apart and there are moments of fake scares thrown in for no reason.... Tom Arnold convulses, the table shaking with the priest etc... The ending really ruins this one and it tries to be something its not.
