Review
Daniel Radcliffe will have a hard time erasing his Harry Potter image clearly. The first sight at the movie and this is what will cross your mind. Maybe it will take him few years to be mature enough for playing mature roles. Anyways, this is the kind of plot which interests me a lot. Even by looking at the poster I could make out that this is gonna be an old school horror ( a kind of rare in modern times). It surely is.
The movie follows a simple plot and is quite assumable even in the beginning. So one thing I would suggest you all is to keep your brain out of your head and watch it just for the horror's sake. Arthur Kipps travels to a remote village to sell the Eel Marsh House. Now the house is haunted (not just house, but the village). That's it. Whatever follows are the situations and the drama part. Still I liked it much. It's been a long time I watched such a horror movie. Its devoid of any blood spills and other gore stuff. What you'll see is pure horror. Daniel has done nice if we can get rid of his earlier image. The direction is nice as there are few sudden scenes to make you jump. I liked the cinematography really. It creates a proper creepy environment. Nothing else that I would like to mention here. It's surely a scary watch and you'll like it definitely. There are some weak points but I never said its a perfect movie.
