Thank you, Simon! It was my dad who finally eased my mind, I think, because he said he doesn't like horror movies but Silence of the Lambs was great. I hope I'm not misremembering that! Anyway, I'm incredibly glad I conquered the fear and regret I only rented the film. It's good enough I'd rewatch it again. In fact, I think it's gonna have to go on my new October movie list...Hmmmm.... :D
