A Haunting in Ravenwood

While scanning the reviews for this particular title I was really dismayed that people have the audacity to tear something apart that was not a multimillion dollar project. Obviously if it was a larger scale project then I can understand some of the comments. While I will not give any spoilers, I will critique the items that I think could have probably been addressed little bit better. The dialogue from far away could have been a little bit more audible. And the flickering from the candles when they weren't actually flickering probably could have been addressed. Overall I think it was a pretty good movie considering the subject and content. Kudos to whoever directed this project 😊

If you are a cult classic fanatic of the 50's and 60's style horror and acting, there is a possibility you may love this movie. Having watched many classics with my father as a child I originally loved those, but as the film industry developed, so did the writing, directing, and acting. This film did not.

While the story has really great promise, the acting, directing and special effects make me want to watch a movie written by, directed by, and staring William Shatner. I would even recommend that for potential viewer in leu of this travesty of tragedy. The lead character "Mary" is the only character with any viable depth and emotion. I actually appreciated her role. Her husband was given some really bad lines and direction while the grounds keeper is completely unbelievable in his character. The special effects made me reminisce of my child as a 7 year old doing a make-up party. I have never written a review, but I felt the need to warn would be viewers not to waste their money unless they are into the 50's and 60's style horror with the same budget and quality as they originally used in those movies. Well, to be fair it was at least in color with HD...

If you're a fan of 50's inspired haunted house flicks you're in luck! This little indie horror film is clearly inspired by the works of William castle and Roger Corman.

Predictable. Do not get me wrong, it is not a complete waste of time. The theme: a haunting with somebody who is seeing a therapist. Yes, there is a creepy guy as well. Okay storyline but nothing out of the ordinary.

The acting is okay, but it is not going to set the acting world on fire, so to speak. The movie moves on a bit slow, but tolerable.

The biggest problem is that if you try and guess where the movie is going or what happens next, you will probably be correct, especially if you watch these types of movies. It is okay, but no "wow factor."

Overall, I would say this: It is very predictable.

Honestly, how do these movies get made? If you love community theatre, go see that instead. Poor performances, low production value, and terrible script.
