The Haunting

Spain   Ana Torrent

Couple in crisis move to a remote house to re-charge but in time-honored fashion are soon faced with the usual creepies and crawlies and things that go bump in the night. The story was tied up in catholic church nonsense plus a smidgeon of Franco-era atrocity but the details don't really matter.

Expensive production, nice looking, well acted and presented...but there have been many of these over the years and to stand out you have to do something original which this film didn't.

Raised to watchable by AT - Spain's best actress.
