Quite otherworldly..........., 3 March 2008
10/10
Author: Matthew Hopkiins from United Kingdom

A superb period ghost story.

There aren't any actors that I recognise in the film,but that doesn't matter one jot.

The film has a strange timeless quality to it,and for the most part the performances are flawless.

It's hard to fathom why a film of this quality has all but disappeared and is only available as a bootleg.

Having said that the less than perfect picture quality of the copy I watched added to the atmosphere!

Superb musical score too.

Highly recommended if atmosphere is more important to you than visceral shocks.

Does anyone know if this ever got a theatrical release in the UK, or if the Temple video release was it's only official release?

They don't make them like this anymore!
