Yellow Wallpaper (2012)

Starring: Juliet Landau, Aric Cushing, Dale Dickey, Veronica Cartwright, Michael Moriarty
Director: Logan Thomas

Premise:
After a fire takes their house and their daughter's life, a young couple and the wife's sister move into a strange house. Soon the wife starts to see an apparition resembling their daughter and withdraws from the family.

My Take:
A very slow moving southern gothic tale with lots of holes in the plot. But it grew on me over the course of the watching it. And being set in the late 1800's helps the mood and mystery.

Rating: In the middle
