Another Tim Burton/ Johnny Depp film.
The styling of it is brilliant, the right tones of gloomy are hit. Classic images of the story are given a bit of a quirky freshness by the duo.
This is one of those films that might have gone wrong. Ghost stories have mostly been dealt with, with the extreme horror but this was done with more of a low key idea; giving it more of a crime drama spin.
What do I think I learned from this film?
This is one of the creepiest stories in the world, no matter how you slice it.
