Somewhat frightening.

It was the new Exorcist and I saw one or two new things, but with time the horror scenes have been mitigated by the commercialization of the 'turning head with green vomit spewing out of its mouth'.  In view of the present day films purporting to be 'horror' this is a Classic.  I enjoyed watching it again.

This is a frightening look at what might become of the U.S. if we aren't careful.  This book is a lesson in history that too many of us have forgotten.

More ghost fairy tale than horror film. It keeps your attention, but it looked a lot more terrifying than it actually was.

Not so far fetching an idea with emerging technology but rather scary if mis-managed. Hope the concept can become reality at some point in time

It was a bit scary to think that this could actually happen to someone.  Just find the flaw that all of us have somewhere and exploit it.  The ending was a bit disappointing because Beth is left to continue her chaos.  Left me a bit unsettled and on edge.  Wanted Grace to get a clue and end the chaos.  She eventually does but not until many twists and turns.

Terrifying that creeps like this exist, easy read, had trouble putting down, very scary reading at times, very brave at times

I know this story was written in the late 1800s, but it really is not for young children. It is scary

A scarry account of a fictional happening.  The author, being a geologist, relates the details in a knowledgeable manner.  Perhaps some  government regulators will read this book.

Probably the scariest part of A Taint in the Blood is that it seems plausible. A mix of modern science and superstition, with an up close look at what sort of people human predators would be. And they aren't pretty...

Fascinating and scary at the same time.  Some of the middle section on how the various countries etc intersect and who is allowed where was a bit more technical that I understood.  However, I followed the gist of it and it was a minor part of the telling of the story.  I'm sure those who work in the field (in depth) would understand that better.

Good concept, but then got out of hand and beyond the realm of believability unless you are a conspiracy theorist.  I do think we are not far off from something like this, and it is very scary to think about the consequences....however in this book things went a little too far.  An entertaining read, but I won't be picking up the sequels.

You may or may not agree with Anonymous' prescriptions for winning the war on terror - but his analysis of the root cause of the 'War on Terrorism' rings depressingly true.

I might also add that it is terrifying. Not in the shrill, non-specific way we've grown accustomed to over the past few years. Terrifying specifically because it presents a cogent case that the U.S. is tragically misplaying the current situation.

I just hope that the people in power don't have too much of their own "Imperial Hubris" to read this book.

This was my second Carter Wilson read, and it proved scarier than my first read. Some very frightening serial killers involved here. The plot demonstrates how evil can get you involved in in a situation not of your making so easily, that it is almost impossible to get out of. A great read.

A very scary look at how what seems to be good for us can, in effect, doom us in the end.

Scary that this could happen to a man who was protecting a woman's life.

Very intimidating in places.  A bit convoluted but a gripping tale of what might happen to unsuspecting travelers.  Premise is almost believable

... this is pretty scary stuff. A bit over the top conspiracy-wise but close enough to our current direction to give one pause.
