Young lawyer Arthur Kipps travels to a remote village to organize a recently deceased client’s papers, where he encounters the ghost of a scorned woman set on vengeance. —IMDb
It was surprisingly easy to look past the Harry Potter franchise associated with Daniel Radcliffe's face, which is key for enjoyment. Otherwise, the ghostly apparitions and jump scares were aplenty (and really a lot of fun). The soundtrack was eerie and the production design was drab and misty (just like you'd expect from a ghost story). Overall it was a surprisingly entertaining movie.
Well-executed if completely predictable. Too many jump-scares as well, but nice to see Potter doing something different.
Gray is at BAMcinématek tonight. And Offscreen focuses on Fellini and Powell and Pressburger.
