A Fantastic Thrill Ride!

Rating: 9/10 (22 September 2012)

Great movie! Loved it. Just a tip: don't watch it alone! A great thrill with some fantastic jump out moments. One of the better horror movies i've seen lately. Daniel Radcliffe does a good job of playing a somewhat depressed widower, he manages to portray emotion whilst balancing his character and his connection with the storyline. I can imagine playing a completely different role to his previous role in the Harry Potter series and breaking out of the way that everyone sees him as Harry Potter must have been tough but he has managed to break out of his shell in this film. The sound effects, costumes and the setting of the time in this film is impressive, the director and set designers have managed to re-create the time period effectively and this only makes the film increasingly spooky. The idea of the film is very effective. I would recommend it for teenagers and adults, but not children, unless if you want your child to have a few sleepless nights!
