Haunting of Hill House Review
Haunting of Hill House is a Netflix Original released mid 2018. The show caught me off guard as I suspected it was just another show on Netflix thst was hyped up and failed to entertain. However, I was surprised to find myself binging the season every chance I got in my spare time. The first thing that intrigued me was the "Easter Egg Ghosts" is what I have labeled them. These ghosts would appear somewhere in certain scenes that the characters never notice but we, the audience, noticed. They're not in every episode or every scene, but they're there. The spookiness of this show was far better than I thought it would be, the story was unique enough to leave me wanting more, the ending took a different turn than it was leading up to, not a bad turn, definitely a different turn. The show in my opinion deserves a lot more attention than I feel it has received as it isn't just another ghost story, it's one that had kept my wife and I on the edge of our seats but also on guard in the dark. Check The Haunting of Hill House out on Netflix if you're brave!

One of Danny Boyle's Best
Danny Boyle is one of those directors that can rarely do wrong, and he really excels here with this beautiful sci-fi. It's well acted and has a fantastic cast, the effects are brilliant and it's a really interesting plot. The soundtrack by John Murphy is probably one of my all time favourite soundtracks, so haunting and memorable.

Not bad remake of "The Last man on Earth" which has elements of Charlton Heston's "Omega Man"
Smith is convincing as he wanders around a deserted New York and conveys loneliness very well, the CGI on the whole is good and the empty streets haunting however the creature design was a let down and not convincing enough, good but not great Sci-fi!

This book is one of the most beautifully written books I have ever read! The story is a haunting tale of what the end of the world might actually look like. The relationship between the father and son is heartbreaking and sweet. I cried so many times reading this book. You should definitely add this book to your list of must reads!

A claustrophobic and terrifying journey with Paul Sheldon you live through this nightmare not just by his side but in his head with him. The pure fear and loneliness of Paul's experience is continuously haunting. Along with this he torments himself with unwelcome memories that subsequently nourish him with the tools he needs to manipulate his way out.

Almost finished season 12 definitely an improvement on the previous season Jodie is getting better at playing the doctor. Nice to see the Cybermen back with a new looj and the return of the master with a new look face. Overall better season than last but not perfect

"My favorite von Trier film. Everything from Emily Watson's breakthrough, tour-de-force performance (I’ve never seen an actress break the fourth wall to the camera like this before) to the haunting title cards set to Jethro Tull, Deep Purple, Elton John, David Bowie, and Procol Harum. Such a heartbreaking story of what desperate measures love can drive you to."

Very interesting plot and unexpected ending
This novel was as strange as it is haunting. It lends itself to a very vivid picture, so much that I envisioned Matthew McConaughey as the perfect Terrance. The plot is unique and even though it is a short read it packs a hefty punch. Some of the internal monologue is a bit slow but it mostly keeps you guessing.

This series was one of THE best I have watched in a very long time. Had me wanting to binge watch in one night. Did not think I would ever go through so many emotions from watching a thriller series. This did it.
I don't scare easily from horror shows/movies...but Haunting of Hill House is an exception. I HIGHLY recommend watching!
