Gone With The Wind: The Cold Wind Belows
The Wind- is a excellent psychological horror that has suspense, thrills and drama and its set in late nineteenth-century on the American frontier. Its a supernatural western film and its excellent.

The plot: Lizzy is a tough, resourceful frontierswoman settling a remote stretch of land on the 19th-century American frontier. Isolated from civilization in a desolate wilderness where the wind never stops howling, she begins to sense a sinister presence that seems to be borne of the land itself, an overwhelming dread that her husband dismisses as superstition. When a newlywed couple arrive at a nearby homestead, their presence amplifies Lizzy's fears, setting into motion a shocking chain of events.

The suspense, the thrills, the psychological, the supernatural and the horror are all excellent. I highly recordmend watching this film.

Page turner
This is a page turner, that gripped me from start to finish. It is a very psychological book that will keep you on your toes. The writing was very good and the main character is fascinating. The plot is one of the most original that I have ever read.

Flimsy story, almost comedic
While this story was extremely engaging for its genre and content, it started off with the mystery of a psychological thriller and ended up becoming like a 1970's hammer horror. It couldn't hold itself in the end and the description of the "thing" reminded me of a Sam Raimi style boring gorefest. A bit of a disappointment after 14 hours of listening.

Atmospheric Masterpiece
A spooky psychological suspense/horror film that will draw you in and get under your skin. Set in the famously huge Danvers asylum, which has been closed for years, we start with a 5-guy asbestos clean-up crew charged with making the building safe for renovations. We end with...something else. Just watch! And probably rewatch because it begs for it.

"Kathy Acker was a punk-rock, post-modern writer-artist and she wrote this piece after her mother died. The title says all there is to know about her feelings towards her mother. Acker’s writing coalesces to its most epic as she reinvents, bends, and destroys language, to build a world that is a complete psychological immersion and creative experience. Her books are a gift to humanity."

"Any collection of John Cheever’s short stories. I’m not a big fan of much of what passes itself off as literary fiction, finding it to be insipid, self-indulgent, plotless, and pointless. However, Cheever could write about everyday life and make it fascinating. His psychological insights are deft, never heavy-handed, and sometimes, as in his story “The Enormous Radio,” he veers into some really strange territory."
