    Subject: Phone Calls
    Date: Jun 6, 2003
    Sender: deedumPrevious | Next

    Ok...I thought this movie was really good, but one thing I don't understand is if Gordon's wife is dead, who is he talking to when he calls her? We know the phone works because others use it to make calls. So whats going on with that?

    Re: I live near Danvers state hospital, been insid

    Jake, are people still able to get inside Danvers (without getting arrested, I mean--like a legal tour or something)? I am designing a production set in an insane asylum and since I will be in that area soon, I was wondering if anyone would let me and my director take a look and get some pictures. (I'm sure as hell not doing it alone.)

    I notice that you have an email so maybe I'll just email you about that.

    I LOVED Session 9, by the way. I'm a hardened, jaded horror movie junkie and this scared the living daylights out of me. It was really more the exterior and interior of Danvers that did it for me--I guess it all depends on what scares you, and old prisons and mental hospitals have always scared me. Not to mention the incredible sound design. I thought the production designer was a genius until I read that they really added & changed very little of Danvers' interior. No matter, the production designer's still pretty talented.

    Anyway, great movie.
