A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.

Very good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.

Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.

Little to no cgi. All scares. Really enjoyed how often I was caught off guard.

Two virtues define this film - Hellen Mirren. and the house. and , sure, the atmosphere, costumes, drops of fear and reasonable sketches of tension. the basic sin - it is one of many haunting house films. not a bad one, not a modest one, but one who has not the science to convince. not a bad fact but one who could not be so easy ignored . if you do not ignore the potential of story, the actors and the landscape. something missing is the ordinary conclusion after its end. what ? maybe the courage to say, in right manner, the right story. the science to propose a better script to good actors. and to explore the art of Hellen Mirren.

This was an entertaining film with loads of scares to deliver. But it's difficult to like it much when the plot becomes impossible to believe on some level. For it to be effective, something about the characters need to realistic. Henry is possessed by the vengeful spirit and shoots Sarah point blank with a rifle, but she's not even injured after he tries to strangle her afterwards. The doctor claims to have been dead three minutes and revived to life. Where in 1900's America could that have ever happened? I don't see why it takes Australians to come up with movies about famous Americans like Tonya Harding, Sarah Winchester or Ted Kennedy. Couldn't George Clooney be interested in a project like that?

WinchesterThe upside to being a rich senior citizen is the ability to afford the best abusive retirement home.Fortunately, the dowager in this horror movie also has the means to stay in her home.Following her husband's death in 1906 the Winchester Rifle Company dispatches Dr. Price (Jason Clarke) to evaluate the mental state of their new owner, Sarah Winchester (Helen Mirren), who is proposing they manufacture toys instead of weapons. Inside the Winchester mansion, Price learns of Sarah's obsession with building new rooms onto the manor to appease the spirits of those killed by her family's firearm.While the Winchester Mystery House, its eccentric owner and her occult leanings are all based on fact, what transpires in this haunted house however is an absolute insult to the more fascinating biography laying dormant underneath this jump-scare schlock-fest.Besides, nowadays every company is haunted by the spectre of bad online reviews.
