Really good and intense movie. Though the only thing I don't like was that the movie was too slow in some scenes, I didn't like the naked woman in the bathtub scene, and the actress who played the wife was annoying; but Jack Nicholson's outstanding performance and some creepy scenes and music make up for it.
