Review of Crimson Peak (2015) by Azirphaeli — 18 Oct 2015
Very uninteresting and boring story with underutilized (though well designed) ghosts that fail to add anything to the movie that matters.
On point stylish visuals create a backdrop to a slow and uninteresting story that fails to engage as a mystery due to the villains insistence on showing the audience their nature well before they do the other characters. The audience sits around and waits for the protagonists to play catch up while ghosts occasionally appear to try and scare the audience more so than the characters but fail to do so.
The horror is rarely horrific, the mystery is not at all mysterious, and the excellent sets and visuals are wasted on this movie.
