I love this one, I really do, but that's mainly because Sam Waterston is so good in it. When someone can be that convincing in something they never do, in this case, horror, that's the sign of a good actor. That being said, can someone please tell me what Jordan did that deserved such an awful fate? So he told a creepy stalker type to get lost after he found him at his home for the 4th time, I would have done the same thing. Was it because his monster creations didn't scare him, or because he likes scaring people? As a writer myself, why would his own creations scare him, that's not their purpose. And he enjoys making people feel the way their supposed to feel when watching or reading horror stories? Oh, how terrible! Are people supposed to react to a horror movie the same way they react to something warm and fuzzy? Is it because he doesn't like people? The cure for being a recluse is not scaring them and driving them to suicide. The man isn't a monster, so why does he eventually turn into one? He should have done something truly horrible to deserve such a fate.
