Back to Black

Rating: 8/10 (16 June 2012)

Fabulous, throughly entertaining, beautifully photographed, well-acted, well-scripted and scary. What more could one want from a Gothic ghost story?
I cannot believe this film is currently scored a measly 6.6 on here -- or the derogatory rants/reviews that say it is clichéd and dull. I absolutely loved it! What were they expecting? Paranormal Activity 101???
It exceeds Hammer films usual production values on every level -- from the casting through to the scares, it is top notch.
Daniel Radcliffe is a joy to watch and certainly has both the subtlety and the gravitas to carry the lead role.
This was a film that exceeded it's trailer for once! I'd been looking forward to seeing it and was not disappointed. Highly recommended for anyone who enjoys an intelligent, well-crafted ghost story.
