Bo, see my earlier statement. I have to say, once again, that I disagree with most of what people are saying. First, I never thought of it as a true story. I always knew it would be in the same genre as Amityville Horror, pseudo-non-fiction. I'm sure that a lot of books actually fit into this category. Second, I liked that there was an actual story & background. I have bought the original "A Haunting in Connecticut" from the Discovery channel & watched it 2 nights ago. The movie is more entertainment. Discovery is more "fact", with very little of that. The acting was okay. Kinda, Poltergeist meets Amityville Horror with a little Exorcist thrown in. Our favorite part was the poem, which I have found a version of and will post elsewhere. All & all I don't think it was a bad movie. I may actually buy it.
