Dramatic Period Horror

Rating: 8/10 (5 August 2019)

Contrary to other costume dramas from the 90s, this one did not age as well as it could have.
The cast may have a several popular names which at this point were no longer rookies in their field, but somehow it still feels a bit stiff and forced.
Aside from those 2 flaws, the story is melodramatic and sad, the sets look like a an eerie and gloomy converted attic space playground, and all in all the 2 hours will be spent in a nostalgic "Saturday morning horror sofa time"-feeling.
Best to watch on a chilly and dark November afternoon.
