Director : James Watkins
Running Time : 96 mins
Four years after his wife dies in childbirth, lawyer Arthur Kipps (Radcliffe) is given one final chance to prove himself by his bosses and is sent to a remote village to perform some standard legal services. Once there he is met by a cold welcome, and soon discovers that the village is haunted by the ghost of woman seeking revenge for the accidental drowning of her son.
This wasn’t a bad little gothic horror film, although most of the scares relied purely on extremely jumpy music that after a while did begin to get on my nerves. Radcliffe is pretty good in the lead – a far cry from Harry Potter as a lawyer and father – and manages to make both his fear and anguish believable to the audience from start to finish. If you like atmospheric horror films, they you could do a lot worse than this.
