Stir of Echoes Movie Review 1999

The kid in "The Sixth Sense" isn't the only one seeing dead people, although blue-collar Tom Witzky (Bacon) really doesn't have a clue as to what's happening to him. After being hypnotized at a party by his witchy sister-in-law, Lisa (Douglas), Tom winds up with some very scary clairvoyant abilities, which link him to a neighborhood teenaged girl who's presumed missing but has, in fact, been murdered. Naturally, Tom's visions and obsessions lead to some problems with his family and friends. Based on the novel by Richard Matheson.
