I'm a sucker for anything Victorian era,& for a budget of less than the catering on many films kudos to the makers of this one for getting a genuine feel for the period re; costumes & settings. however, some decent actors cannot make the clunky,heavy-handed dialogue anything more than that,& the huge swathe of pontificating exposition that is the majority of its runtime had even this masochistic watcher jumping ahead. i agree with previous reviewers,Richard Brake deserves more than being the outstanding thing in a mediocre film,but sadly this potboiler quickly runs out of steam for the unfortunately vast amount of time he is not present.
Not a bad movie. It won't win any awards but its quite entertaining, in my opinion of course. 3 Skulls.
I think this commits the greatest sin a horror movie can in that its boring. To quote the great Eddie Izzard "you cant be scared and bored. You cant be bored AND have diahorrea."
I love set back,Richard,the tar vomit and the lady ghosts outfit and looks being ghostly!!
great original story, a little cheesy sometimes, none the less, a good story.
