The Rating System

All opinions are my own. We are all different. What I may think is great, you may this terrible. Don't let my opinios stop you from exploring the vast world of horror in all media.

~Mind Blowing: Search for this movie immediately. It can only be described as pure greatness and possible an instant classic.

~So Good: Highly recommended because for one reason or another it stands out above the usual fair. Put the movie on your radar as it wont disappoint.

~In the Middle: The movie is a nothing special, average affair. It may entertain in the short term but it will be easily forgettable in the long haul.

~Warning: This movie is a cliched driven slop of familiar territory. Only watch if you're really of fan of this type of material.

~Steaming Pile: The movie is absolute garbage, a complete bore, and not worth the time or effort.

Crimson Peak (2015)

Starring: Mia Wasikowska, Tom Hiddleston, Jessica Chastain, Charlie Hunnam, Jim Beaver
Director: Guillermo Del Toro

Premise:
After her father is murdered, a young girl quickly marries and moves away from her home into the estate of her husband and his sister. Soon not all appears to be not as it should.

My Take:
The movie caught me off guard a bit as the ghosts theme is really a sidebar to the character's evil doings. Beautifully filmed and skillfully acted.

Rating: So Good

Watched: Netflix DVD
