Review of Bunny Lake Is Missing (1965) by Bill T — 06 Feb 2013

Creepy is the word. By today's standards it's pretty tame but this is one weird movie, shot beautifully it is a haunting piece of cinema that keeps you guessing the whole way through whether or not Bunny Lake actually exists.

Great build up and even with a somewhat predictable ending this thriller will set the heart off in places. A remake is on the cards so make sure you see the original before the pissy new one that was set to star Reese Witherspoon.

Question, why remake old movies when they were so good to begin with? We need more original movies Hollywood! Also, I love the opening titles for this film, Otto Preminger sets the scene for the entire film with the chilling music and simplistic visuals.
