    I LOVED THIS MOVIE AS A KID. IT USED TO SCARE ME TO DEATH. NOW MY CHILDREN ALSO LIKE IT.THE PARTS THAT USED TO SCARE ME MOST WERE WHEN THOMAS WAS IN THE UNDERGROUND RAILROAD AND WAS HEARING THOSE NOISES AND ALSO WHEN PLUTO JUMPED UP FROM UNDER THE GROUND.

    This movie isnt half bad, but the book is better. If you liked this movie even just a little do yourself a favour and read the book and some others by Virginia Hamilton.
