I didn't see the movie. I couldn't put the book down. I've loaned it to several friends and they were as fascinated as I was - a real thriller!!

This book was a fast read (of around 140 pages).
The spoiler on this is that I saw the movie first. The book was first released in 1993.
While the movie was based on the book - it was difficult to compare the film to the book.
Movie: Had 4 characters in the Hole.
Book: Had 6 characters.
Movie: stated how long they were in the hole and the outcome of all characters involved.
Book: Stated what happened to two characters.
The problem I had with the book is that I saw the movie first and enjoyed it much more than the book.
As for calling the book a psychological thriller - the movie was much more intense.

good book-psychological thriller about a teen who tricks 5 others into going in the Hole for 3 days during a school field trip. The 5 realize that they are trapped. Ending was a bit confusing but kept me turning the pages.
Very good suspenseful story but when I read the ending I was so confused and didn't really understand it.
