A chilling ghost story!

Rating: 8/10 (4 October 2012)

I was looking forward to seeing this movie as I have read the book and really enjoyed it, so I was very interested in seeing how they would translate it into a film. Woman in Black did a really good job at keeping the tone of the book all the way through the film, and I do think that is the most important thing in a book to movie adaptation. There are some quite big difference between the events that happen in the book and the events that happen in the movie, but I appreciated the changes as they made it an all round better film. People seem to forget that if a film kept 100% faithful to the book that would not make a good movie, so I had no problem with any of the changes the film made.
Overall Woman in Black is a chilling film, it kept great suspense throughout and had me on the edge of your seat waiting to see what was around the next corner. A great film with good performances and direction, I really enjoyed it a lot. If your looking for an old fashioned scary horror film; which is hard to find nowadays may I add, watch WOMAN IN BLACK!
