i saw this movie with my girlfriend . it be a total disaster . you can really see it be cheaply make . badly script and with very bad act . i have read several version of the book by different author and also listen to one version on audio book . we couldn not take the movie seriously because of the lacking element it should have contain . the experience of watch this be like the blair witch visit green acre . then there be part that be vulgar . they show this little boy use a bed pan and they actually show the content of it . the witch throw the content of it on the boy and the whole family laugh . i think it be nasty and very strange . i really can not understand why someone would think that would be entertain . it show another scene where dr. mize arrives and betsy bell be urinate in her dress on the step of their house in front of her mother and brother . instead of the mother lead her off it be the brother . how sick . the little boy in the first scene of the many scene deal with how your body disposes of waste begs for toilet paper and go to the out house and make these sicken face of joy with sound effect . i think they should have leave all of that out . the makeup on the reverend jam johnston a a old man do not really make you assume he be old . it make you think he be dip in fish batter . the blood on joshua gardner when he fall from the ladder be even bad . the john bell death scene look like they get out flour and try to do something with it to make him look a a serious sick man . to me to much sickening comedy with bathroom problem and inexperienced people involve be the downfall of this picture . these people would do good if they film commercial for local tv station for bathroom product . they choose a good subject and be unable to produce it in a correct manner . i rate this film capital f minus .
