Ripping Good

Rating: 8/10 (23 September 2019)

Fine dark gothic horror woven around the mystery of Jack the Ripper and his murders. What I like most - besides the suspenseful story - is the great cinematography, the visual style of From Hell and the tone of melancholy around the main character (Inspector Frederick Abberline), and also the ending is not your typical Hollywood sugar-candy one. From Hell belongs like Sleepy Hollow or The Ninth Gate to one of the good and unique movies Mr. Depp did before he got stuck in Sparrow Wonderland.
