Customer Reviews of The Woman in Black

I'm happy to find this excellent, terrifying movie on tape.
Back when 'The Woman in Black' first aired on television six years ago, I saw it twice. Until happily finding and buying it off Amazon last week, I had not seen it again (although I have been wanting to own it for years). Just as I expected, despite the number of years that have passed, its performance this time around reinforced my previous opinion that it is, perhaps, the most effective ghost story put to film. Forget gore or unnecessary special effects...They aren't needed. It just goes to show that a large budget isn't needed to make a fine film, and that one doesn't have to be beaten over the head with special effects to get the point. I find it a shame that this movie is not available in many video stores, because it certainly deserves a broader circulation.

A thinking man's horror film.
After a lonely widow dies, a young lawyer is assigned to look after her estate. When he arrives in the small town of Crythin, he finds that few of the townspeople will have anything to do with him or his work, and keeps seeing a mysterious woman in black. Eventually he begins to investigate the strange history of the town and becomes ensnared in its horror. A genuinely frightening tale with lots of creepy scares. You do have to use your imagination in the film, but believe me it's worth the effort. I love ghost stories like The Ring, The Others, The Innocents, The Haunting, and The Changeling, so I knew I couldn't pass this up. This is definately a thinking man's movie. One of the scariest flicks you'll ever see. If you're the type of horror movie buff who likes that creepy type of atmosphere where your imagination can jut run wild without a whole lot of fake blood and gore then this movie is for you. Okay I'll admit I love blood and guts movies as well, but I have a soft spot for psycholical horror flicks such as this and The Blair Witch as well. Watch this one alone in the dark, and remember to let your imagination run wild.

Dont expect.....
...blood, gore, monsters, jumping out of your seat nonsense. Just expect a slow, creeping sense of dread and you'll love this film. One of the few films that really scared me.

Fabulous.
