Jan 19, 2017 This was something I went into fairly blind, recording it off of our HDMovies channel just because it was a new film at the time, and I was pleased to have it be a decent watch when I finally got around to watching it. The supernatural elements are almost a distraction, if I'm being perfectly honest. The main story is about a love triangle that happens when a widower takes a shine to a writer of ghost stories when she appears at a local literary festival, and the rival author who also fancies her. The visions that our widower keeps having are startling and spooky, but they really of almost feel out of place in the face of the romance and drama. Give it a look, I'd be curious to hear other opinions, see if it worked better for others than it did for me. See more Sep 6, 2016 Here's my take.. Since the love-drama story and horror really don't mix perhaps Michael (Hinds) imagined the whole thing and what we saw in the movie, those jump scares, was his elaborate way to get his story-book to the ghost writer lady since she had connections.. Maybe the unassuming qualities of his role were actually to play the long game and like the drunken obnoxious American writer said before the silly fight scene take advantage to pitch their book ideas to successful writers.. Or it was simply about life being piece together for those left behind after death, romance at late age, drunken, crazy and rich authors with a short lived, unfolded or too obvious, ghost story?

Other than these things, I just didn't care for the film as a whole. See more Sep 14, 2015 170127: A horror drama! A soft and gentle love story that will scare the shit out of you. A bit to close to home and caught me off guard on a Friday night alone. I regrettably kept turning up the volume up because I couldn't catch what was being said. Was that done intentionally? Perhaps I wouldn't have suffered so much if I could've found something other than Spanish subtitles. I like this film though I'm not sure I'll be able to watch it again.

I just don't get tired of watching it. See more Read all reviews
