Review of The Woman in Black (2012) by Spangle — 09 Dec 2015
The Woman in Black is a deeply unsettling and scary horror film that really does some interesting things within the horror genre. A twist on the haunted house story with an explanation and backstory, The Woman in Black features a very good performance from Daniel Radcliffe, as well as a good one from Ciaran Hinds.
The production design is great and greatly contributes to the great atmosphere created by the film that really unsettles you. In regards to the twist, there is a great scene where we get a POV shot from the ghosts perspective as we finally see her take on things and why everything is happening, which is really interesting.
The ending is a little odd and I cannot tell if it is touching or terrifying. Regardless, The Woman In Black is really well done and very much a terrifying film that sets out to achieve certain goals and excels at all of them.
