Review of The Changeling (1980) by Stuart M — 20 Feb 2016
A decent horror film that doesn't seem to want to be a horror film. Instead it prefers to focus more on the mystery and investigative aspects of the story. There is a supernatural element (believed in awfully quickly) and it lacks the irritating and cliched helpless victims of most horror films.
Despite the title it's not really about a creepy kid tearing a family apart. It's closer to a haunted house movie. The changeling of the title refers to something completely different in a way I appreciated.
Anyway, worth seeing but not enormously scary.
