Then there are the patients. One of them, Monique, is driven to a near homicidal rage by her boyfriend's incessant knuckle cracking--but it has never dawned on her to ask him to stop. So the question is this: What's with the exclamation point in the title? "I asked the same question. I thought it was a typo," says Azaria. "Basically, it's just kind of something...

Hideo Nakata's movie had a surefire opening (a killer videocassette) and a double climax (our heroine confronts death down a well, and then her boyfriend is murdered when the dead girl in the video crawls out of a TV set).
