Boredom in Venice
The haunting part is silly and not a central part of this lame whodunit. The visual effects with incessant thunder and lightning and torrential rains is vapid, the script is quite boring and the acting especially that of the doctor and child is embarrassingly amateurish and distracting . Poirot in the novels and most films arrive to his conclusions in a very methodical way, yet here it just does not make sense, did they accidentally edit out some important parts ? Not recommended for Agatha Christie fans , or for mystery fans , it was quite boring. Also, there isn't such a thing as a Halloween in Italy let alone in Venice where they have a much more elaborate and sophisticated Event called Carnivale so there was a lack of authenticity to add to other issues with this mediocre film .
