5.0 out of 5 stars a 11 year old reviewer, November 16, 2000

By	brad (Outer Space) - See all my reviews

This movie scared the hell outta me! When the monster roared that was a little spooky. When i saw it chaseing the guy in the end that monster ran so freakin fast it scared me soo hard cuz it was getting closer to him. the gory parts where neat. but the monster made me get a little scared after watching this! kid ages7+8+10+11 will maybe get frighten by this film. so this movie will be good for kids that want a good scare and some gore. but grown-ups might think its chessy as hell. if your still young get this! or if your older DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY! buy it for the kiddes.

5.0 out of 5 stars Creepy chiller, February 15, 2001

By	"carolyn5000" (NY United States) - See all my reviews

Young Cameron possesses some crafty telekinetic powers and inadvertantly unleashes a nasty Mayan demon...A great horror film done in a sitcomish/tvmovieoftheweekish style with a healthy heaping of late 80s style will be sure to please horror fans, and Scott Curtis enthusiasts. Never really scary, but somewhat eerie. Good sound sequences. Interesing images. Cameron is cinematic copecetic.

2.0 out of 5 stars BORING, TACKY, June 7, 2002

By	BD Ashley "vidiot_y2k" (Otago, New Zealand) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Watching this movie is about as much fun as having your wisdom teeth pulled. Boring and tacky even by horror standards, the only fun comes from seeing the psychic kids' future wicked stepfather being eaten by the monster that lives in his closet, hence the title. I've seen far worse, but those worse movies were more "enjoyable" than this. The following morning you probably won't remember having seen it. If only the monster had eaten this movie's negative, then we would all be spared.
