The Haunting of Margam Castle

Very mediocre acting as a team of ghost hunters explore the castle best thing the movie has going for it is the fact it's a real place that the movies based on. In my opinion it's a serious snoozefest as it takes forever for anything to happen and when it does happen theres no gore or anything associated with a good horror flick. So low budget that they couldnt even afford descent cgi for blood. Dont waste your time.

So let's start with paranormal psychologists that don't believe in ghosts!?? Then being sent to a castle with a reputation for being haunted and not seeming to have any interest!?? So, I wondered what kind of idiot would even write a story line like this. Then there's the acting....is the acting sub par, or is it the script. The story line would suggest the script, but then again maybe both. I kept waiting for the story to develop into something, but I was left wanting. No satisfaction came from this movie right up to the end. The scenery was the only thing that was somewhat satisfying.

Standard research crew in a haunted house shtick flick but with less screaming. Some of the make-up is good but there's no money for special effects, only a shaking camera and flashing coloured lights. Nesbitt is a good actor, and others have potential but it's marred by scenes where the dialogue is bad and feels like lines being read at each other. This would've been better suited as a TV movie 30 years ago.

Wow wow wow! I think this could have been a fantastic movie with the right actors. The main character annie is the worse actor i have ever seen... and i have seen alot of movies. I hate to be harsh but she totally ruined the movie.. the castle was beautiful and so much potential lost.

This movie has the standard haunting story, nothing new here. I am fine with that. Being a big consumer of horror films, I am used to new films using old story lines.

HOWEVER, and that's a big however, the acting in this movie is deplorable. It is painful to watch the lead female actor "acting". For most of the dialogue she appears to be reading off a script, rather than acting. It all seems very forced. It is just impossible to immerse yourself in the story when the characters are so unbelievable. As the title of this review says, this is the perfect movie not to watch - I suggest doing laundry instead, as that is bound to be a better experience than watching this movie.
