  3. Essay: 'Amour' is a horror film for the ages

    There is no cabin in the woods or scary house at the end of the street in "Amour." There is no ax-wielding Jack Nicholson running around. Yet filmmaker Michael Haneke's examination of the final days of a long life &mdash; and a long love &mdash; may be the quintessential horror film for our times. It has a remarkable ability to scare the living daylights out of audiences of any age.
