Agreed! That creeped me out....1984, that is...and it isnt a ''happy ending'' either....i dont like the idea of control and ''big brother''
If you havent, i think everyone should read some Stephen King...especially 'The Green Mile'' cos that film is nothing compared to the book
The Treatment, by Mo Hayder is very disturbing, its about pedophiles....its really good, but at the end of it it will put you in a bad mood...
I've read quite a lot of books, here's just some, I'd recommend you read the Terry Pratchett and Robert Jordan books if you like Fantasy, the TP especially if you have a sense of humour.
