Le Bal de l'enfer

It has an enjoyable build up thanks to the likeable leads, but it took far too long and after the big reveal, it was over all too quickly. There wasn't really any horror or mystery, just a few jump scares and glimpses of the monster, although the awkward social engagements might tap into modern horror. The action packed finale was ridiculous and along with the lack of originality, completely spoiled the whole film. The Lord performed his role admirably and the setting and costumes were good, but overall it was far too tame to really get your teeth into.

Overall, I'd score it as 3 out of 10.
