The Others

Rating: 6/10 (16 April 2020)

A woman and her 2 children (husband at war) move to a large dark house, supported by 3 servants. It soon becomes apparent that they are not alone.
Very much a slow burner that could have been agonisingly slow if it wasn't for a tour de force and utterly compelling performance by Kidman. Everything is extremely creepy rather than scary with the entire supporting cast all playing their part in keeping it that way.
So not for those who prefer their scares jumpy but producing enough judders to ensure it is up there with the best of ghost stories.
