Supernatural
That which cannot be explained by science - psychic powers, other-worldly phenomena, things that go bump in the night and hide under the bed. Filmmakers have been tapping people's fascination for the supernatural since they first started cranking out celluloid. And who doesn't love a good ghost story? Below are Alice's films that touch on the paranormal, some in a nice way ('What Dreams May Come', 'Phenomenon'), some in a not-so-nice way, ('The Exorcist', 'The Grudge'). A little something for everyone...
