Book/novel has been filmatized into silver screen horror, and yet again its a big flop, a scandalous try to make a great book into a film, so my advice is to skip it...
because there arent much horrifying things shown to the audience, the actors seems like duracell driven robots, and theyve even tried to comedyise the story, without or absolutely at a minimum of sucess and special effects use are merely absent...
a high school media class couldve adapted this story into something better than this, because this was just dr.jæklig and mr hide( away) of all the great moments of terror that this story relieves us with.
The small cast has actually some familiar faces from british tv productions, but their talent has been dematerialized due to less than good direction. Filmatographically its also a hydeaway story, especially the outdoor scenes and the lack of panoramic shoots, cant quite decide if it is the -graphs having a bad day or if its the editors hung over manic monday at work making this a drama that could without impertinence be considered as too bad even for a low budget television channel.the location settings and set decors are so minimalistically spartanic that you may start too shiver and looking out for modern objects and other glitches instead of viewing the movie
so there are nothing to look forward too,i know im salty and galdy cause im utterly disappointed, and just a 2 star from the ''forever and ever in love with ''england, grumpy old man. I bet sir robert will take revenge somehow.
