Classy ghost story

Rating: 7/10 (11 November 2001)

Classy ghost story that goes on a rather long time in what seems to be an over-acted, theatrical style. The denouement justifies the plot, but the feeling is more like seeing a west end play than a supernatural thriller. It scores where trashy horror films fail: it takes itself seriously and has a well thought-out storyline aimed at the intelligent viewer.
