The story centers on a paranormal expert who, while investigating a gruesome slaying, finds a house that is at the intersection of “highways” transporting souls to the afterlife.
Based on the wraparound story penned by Clive Barker in the author’s “Books of Blood” collection, a psychic researcher, Mary Florescu, has employs medium Simon McNeal to investigate a haunted house. McNeal, at first, begins to fake his visions, but then real ghosts present themselves. They attack him and carve words in his flesh, and these words, claims the narrator, form the rest of the stories, stories written on a literal, living Book of Blood. —IMDb
Not a bad film and it was good to see some new material from Clive Barker, without it being a remake of some of his other work. Nice to get some British horror back to screens. Note to Mubi, perhaps you could change the photo above, considering it is from one of the last few scenes in the film?
