Absolutely give it a go.

If you are not already acquainted with this series, and you are a fan of horror and/or psychological thriller fiction, this is an absolutely perfect place to start. It is written in parts, detailing Asakawa’s investigation of a set of mysterious murders and the discovery of a far greater curse. No part is so long as to drag on needlessly, though some are rather short.

This psychological horror movie was pretty good. Decent acting and cinematography. The storyline played out well enough, though quite a bit of it was unbelievable. That the kids went along with so much was hard to accept, but the villain was played well. It moved along rather slowly at first but heightened to a pretty intense climax. Overall, for my fellow horror/ thriller fans, this one is worth a watch!

Greer Macallister’s third historical fiction novel is once again one that includes elements of a thriller and those of an action novel, all while including the psychological aspects of the mentally ill and their treatment during the latter part of the 19th century. Take a look at what I thought of this novel in my newest #bookreview on my blog here. https://tcl-bookreviews.com/2019/03/15/pulling-a-nellie-bly/

WOW!!!
Holy crap!! Everything I thought I had figured out was wholly disintegrated by the revelation that I was not ready for. I started reading this last night and was immediately pulled into this mind-bending read. The twists and turns of the plot are outstanding, and though I loved the characters, I can't comprehend how Finn just didn't know. I recommend this psychological thriller to one and all.

An average thriller
I recall watching this at the cinema when this was first released and thought it was alright, and watching it again 5 years later my view hasn't really changed.

This has a good cast, I always love Jason Bateman and it's nice to see Joel Edgerton directing and acting and I think he does a good job in both. The plot itself seems very similar to other stalker/obsessive/revenge films but it's still quite entertaining and fortunately not overly long. The problem is I wouldnt say this is particularly thrilling or tense. The ending is a little surprising but it feels rather lacklustre in general as a psychological thriller. I also found character motivations and actions to be a little unusual and unexplainable, to the point it makes the film even more unbelievable than it is to begin with.

Overall it's an average watchable psychological drama which is sadly ultimately forgettable.
