HAUNTED CASTLE

My wife and I decided to watch a movie, so we calle dthe IMAX theater nearby to see what was playing. Haunted Castle immediately drew us to the theater based soley on the name. Not knowing what to expect, and not having heard or seen any promotional ads about this, we did not know what to expect. Upon arrival at the theater we suddenly came to realize that the movie was 3D. This further hightened our curiosity and desire to see the film. So we retrieved our 3D headsets, strapped them on and began the adventure into oblivion. The first several minutes of the film were extrordinary in view, sound, and emotional feel. The movie was very captivating, exciting, and provided a fresh new perspective for the IMAX experience. At the end of the movie I was eagerly reading the credits, something I normally don't care for, to see who in the world designed and manufactured such an exhilerating film. I was thoroughly impressed!!

My wife is not a computer junky like I am, and afterwards she turned to me and said "That was awesome!", something I never would have expected her to say given the technology of the film, being that it was almost entirely computer generated.

I used to work for an IMAX theater for 3 years and became accustomed to the standard, almost expected, environment that IMAX typically places the audience in...nature, education, etc. Since I had left that job, I never went to see an IMAX film. So, going to see Haunted Castle was definatly a breath of fresh air, and proved to me that I could once again enjoy the IMAX experience in a new perspective. This is a great movie. GO SEE IT!!
