Atmospheric and Spooky in All the Right Ways

Rating: 8/10 (11 July 2018)

I heard this film was just so-so and put off seeing it for years. I'm so glad I gave it a chance. I feel it's highly underrated and unseen. It is beautifully filmed, highly atmospheric and spooky in all the right ways! I like to call these "quiet" horror films. There isn't much dialog or action, just good old-fashioned spooky atmosphere. Don't let it fool you - there are some genuinely good scares and creepy moment throughout! The story is also endearing and so is Radcliffe's performance. The makeup and costuming as well as filming and cinematography are classically outstanding, and will hold up for years to come. I highly recommend watching - especially during October.
