Customer Reviews of Pin
just as good as the book! I read this book years ago as a teen and then luckily saw the movie at a used video store and bought it. its about a brother and sister who for years have to deal with controlling obsessive parents. the father is a doctor with a lifesize mannequin called pin. when the kids grow up to teens the boy becomes obssessed with Pin. after their parents die he takes pin to the house much to the sisters dismay. and when people start getting on the brothers nerves pin takes care of them forever. the neat part is you never know whether its pin or someone else doing the killing till about halfway through the movie and when you do its still creepy. everyone did a great job in this movie. highly recommended!
I've seen better...
This movie was nothing like I expected. I don't know exactly what I was expecting.... but whatever it was ... it wasn't what I got. The cover of the movie is quite deceptive. On the back of the movie when they say that pin is a harmless deaf mute ... I still kind of thought he was alive or something, but he is just a dummy. I felt bad for the 2 children in the movie ... anyone living under the conditions in their parents house would probably end up going insane or atleast having some severe emotional or psychological issues. So throughout the movie it was hard for me to not feel sorry for Leon (I love David Hewlett - CUBE is soooo much better though). It isn't Leon's fault that his mom was an obsessive compulsive cleaning freak and his dad was a weird and strict, uncaring person. So what if that leads him to believe that his fathers medical dummy is his friend? Pin was much nicer than his parents. So I can't really blame him. A child who has to live under those conditions is bound to have some kind of way to cope with all that is going on. Pin was there to help him. Perhaps there could have been better ways to help Leon than to convince him to kill people (although I cannot place the blame on poor Pin... he is just an innocent by-stander ... especially in the scene where the nurse does bad things to him!! Naughty naughty!) but the idea of Pin being real was all in Leon's head... I really wish someone had gotten him help... especially his sister who seemed very oblivious to what was going on and when she finally did figure out that Leon was mental ... she just went on with her little life and didn't bother to get him some treatment. All in all, I've seen better movies, of course. But I've also seen much worse.
do you have "the need"
oh boy. ok, so yeah this movie gets 4 stars...but not because it's good, but rather because it is so terrible and hilarious, that I can't stop watching it. there is a small but loyal cult following of this movie in and around Boston. the acting and writing are downright hysterical.
