This is definately more SciFi than Horror. It is listed as 'thriller' on Amazon, not horror. It's not horror just cause it's based on a Stephan King book.

Reasons:
mental powers/psychic abilities
secret government experiment
chemical called LOT-6
secret government department known as "The Shop"
pyrotechnics

No suspense, no gore, no monster, no maniac, ... so where's the horror?
"I put the KILL, in SKILL!!!"
"faecs occurrere"
"Better you, than me!"

She's alright when young, she becomes scary later on when she looks like she's been slapped in the gob with a shovel. :mrgreen:
