Growing Darkness
Gwen- is a really good period folk horror drama that has elements of gothic, supernatural and psycholoigcal horror. Eleanor Worthington Fox and Maxine Peake are really good in this film.
The plot: Desperately trying to hold everything together, young Gwen struggles with her mother's mysterious illness, her father's absence and a ruthless mining company that's encroaching on their land. As a growing darkness begins to take grip, the local community grows suspicious and slowly turns on the beleaguered family.
Its a slow pace film but it does get intresting, intense, supernatural, gothic and psychological overtime. Its a good horror film.

Odd gothic thriller
The last part was the best part of this entire novel. Incredibly slow to start and for a very long time the religious subplot seemed pointless. There's also a lot of holes in the story like what happened to the baby's mother? Feel like it's been overhyped.

Depp at his peak powers in this horror fable, the surroundings and gothic visuals get a special mention as they are very much Tim Burton's trademark.
Its an exposition heavy murder mystery that has great character actors and is quite comical.
Very entertaining and thoroughly enjoyable adaptation of Irving's novel.

An ok atmospheric gothic tale, not really a horror film to be honest. It probably could have got a 12 rating. The house and little creatures make the film which has an eerie feel to it with the little whispered voices. Overall though it's a bit slow and not much happens, could have been better.
