An Average Movie-Goer’s Review

I love horror movies and if I’m going to watch them anyway, why not write an entertaining/funny review from the point of view of an average movie-goer and not a professional critic?
Today we’re looking at 2012’s The Woman in Black
Lawyer and widower Arthur Kipps (played by Daniel Radcliffe) is sent to the deceased Alice Drablow’s estate called the Eel Marsh House to retrieve paperwork but upon arriving discovers a strange village and a spirit that seeks vengeance on all.
Overall Review:
The Woman in Black is a great spooky time movie and definite recommend. The acting is great and you really feel like your trying to piece together a mystery with the characters. It’s also a slow burn so if that’s not your thing you might find the first 20 minutes or so boring but it picks up once Arthur gets to the house.
Once inside the film does a great job creating a haunted house ambiance and having things move in the background to create an unsettling feeling.
Don’t expect blood and gore or dead bodies, The Woman in Black tends to lean more towards psychological horror than anything else and it works really well.
Highly recommend.
