Time spent watching films, even crappy ones, is time well-spent.

Dead of Night (1946)

A contractor heads out to the country to estimate a remodel but is struck by déjà vu immediately. Those in the house are fascinated by his strong belief that he's dreamed all of this before and, as a result, start sharing their own experiences with the supernatural.

It's well-crafted and spooky without ever delving into sheer terror (though the dummy scene scared me but good when I was younger). Just a great Halloween movie.

B+
