Cosign! I saw it for the first time about 4 months ago and I remember my heart just dropping. The way they cut to another scene then show him coming home is just perfect. (and a relief!)

They also do it to us with the Ah-Di bathroom scene. I mean who *didn't* assume that Ah-Di was dead? But yeah the pool scene was the scariest.

School me. What is PAL and NTSC? What's the difference? (and what do the acronyms stand for?)
