Review of Winchester (2018) by Ashleigh Raven M — 02 Nov 2018

I tend to like suspenseful horror films, slow burns with good atmosphere are ok by me. This one definitely qualifies as a slow burn. The problem is, Winchester didn't hang onto that atmosphere, it turned into a ghost CGI fest by the end and not in a good CGI way.

I thought the acting was fine and the production quality (outside of the noticeable CGI) was well done. But nothing will kill a film faster than constantly showing obvious and lame CGI just because you can.

Especially hated the climax where they went full tilt with levitating CGI Winchester rifles in the air. Just silly. I didn't hate this film- it was ok but it wasn't Lady in Black either.
