Joe Hill wrote a collection of short stories in a book called 20th Century Ghosts. This movie is based on one of those short stories. I read that book recently because I wanted to read the book before the movie came out last month.

Well, today I finally got to see the movie and I enjoyed it. Whether you are a fan of Joe Hill’s work or not, I think any horror fan is going to enjoy this movie. You won’t have to read the book to be able to follow along with what is going on in the movie although I would suggest reading any of Joe Hill’s work if you a true fan of horror. Anyway, this movie will have you sitting on the edge of your seat while you’re glued to the screen…..and if you’re anything like me then you’ll be rooting for Phineas the whole time. {Note: I think this movie, as well as the book it’s based on, would be more appropriate for mature audiences.
