Although it has its moments, the movie is more biographical than frightening. Helen Mirren delivers a typically powerful and convincing performance, but even her venerable talent cannot prop up a movie utterly predictable in both direction and resolution. Even the occasional moments of fright were dulled by their predictability. If you are a Helen Mirren fan, see the movie. If not, save yourself a trip to the theater..

This was a good film. If you approach it as a scary film rather than a documentary, then it is enjoyable. Lots of suspenseful scenes and jump scares. Although there are 2 stories that are playing out in the film, they blend into 1 and make the film a bit more complete. As for scary scenes, these happen in a flash rather than a full visual that repeats throughout the film. If you want to know more about the house, I would recommend the tour at the location. It's an interesting tour and a beautiful house with all it's oddities.

I liked this movie but there were some poorly scripted scenes. However, Helen Mirren and the other actors did a fine job. There were several really scary scenes that made the entire audience jump. All of the negative reviews below appear to have been written by the same person who seems to be doing this with all of the serious dramatic films that are released. If you look at his/her word choice, it becomes very evident that this person has a serious problem. I suspect that this person only likes action and comic book films with special effects..

Another great acting performance by a great actress, this movie was worth going to see, just to see a genus doing her craft. Forget the rest of the movie. Just go to see her preform, well done Helen!

Forget the bad reviews! This movie was not what I prepared myself for (mediocre) and provided just enough jump-scares. Kudos to the directors for keeping a horror movie fan happy on Valentine's Day!
