Surprisingly well acted and creepy MILD SPOILER
26 October 2012
Warning: Spoilers
Years ago, the BBC in the UK used to screen new adaptations of familiar ghost stories written by leading authors of the past.

These ghost stories were screened every Christmas and usually lasted anything from 30 minutes to an hour.

The Devil's Business reminded me of those old BBC programmes. It was well-acted and scary in parts, with a very creepy ending. And like the BBC's output, the cast was limited to a few players.

Basically the plot revolves around a gangster called Bruno who hires two hit-men, a seasoned veteran and a young man, to kill off another man who apparently lives alone.

But things are not all as they first appear. And who is that little boy lurking in the dark, dark cellar? Black magic and bumps in the night are abound.

Worth a rental or purchase of this DVD. Perfect for Christmas. Don't forget to keep the lights switched on.
