Kevin Bacon: Tom Witzky

Stir of Echoes unfairly is compared with one of a similar natured theme, The Sixth Sense. But no one can say this is a basic copy, just because Echoes was rel... read more

I don’t know if you have noticed it but I’m not a huge fan of thrillers. I mean, of course, some of them are really entertaining but they are always trying to sell you the most preposterous plots that you can imagine (and I won’t even mention the countless number of stupid twist endings they have given us through the years….). Still, they are some exceptions, some are them are actually pre... read more

Pop Culture Phenomenon Films: 90’s (1712 movies items)

" In the film, telephone worker Tom Witzky begins experiencing a series of frightening visions after insisting he was hypnotized by his sister-in law, Lisa. Based on the novel by Richard Matheson, critics thought it was suitably creepy, but that it suffer at the box office due to other films like The Sixth Sense being released at the same time."
