This film is deep!

Rating: Null/10 (29 June 2000)

I only saw this film for the first time about a month ago when I decided to study it for my exams. Having now watched it about 50 times you'd think I'd be sick of it. But, no! The lavish sets (the whole thing was filmed inside) amazing costumes and tragic story make this one not to be missed.
If you think villains are evil men who cause mayhem and destruction and nothing else watch this, it may change your mind...but if you're a soppy kinda girl like me have the tissues handy! Many critics slated this film and laughed at the dodgy English accents of its American stars...all I can say is that you shouldn't take it at such face value, it's far deeper.
Conventional Horror? Maybe, but it plays more like a tragic love story, a gothic Romeo and Juliet perhaps? I think it's one of those films that you either love or hate. But what ever you think just remember...'Love never dies'.
