We take a trip back to 1952 in the latest movie in the Conjuring Universe, The Nun, to find out how it all began and I took the trip back in IMAX in Broughton to enjoy the horror on a big screen.

Haunted was an interesting book, but it suffered from one major flaw - it's excessive length. There were just too many passages that could be trimmed for the better and I found myself glazing more often than not closer and closer to the end. The book isn't all bad, there are quite a few clever things, but it felt more like filler than an actual entry into the series. Ms. Armstrong would probably been better off taking out a few of her ideas and saving them for another book. Oh, and what does she have against cats? It's seriously disturbing. The other stuff I can handle, I can somehow separate myself from it because I know it's fiction. But there's something about animal torture, mutilation, etc., even in a fictional book that just creeps me out and makes me sick. Not my idea of fun reading. *shudder*

A Netflix unoriginal
Horror-by-numbers from Netflix. A young American man looks to make some money by tricking Glaswegians into believing their house is haunted and banishing the spirits. He makes his sister pretend to have the gift of communication with the spirits, and the use of some technology to baffle the mid-80s victims. Just before their last such scam, his sister discovers she may have some real sixth sense after all.
The acting is mediocre (Celia Imrie totally hamming it up from the off), with the rest of the (non-Scottish) cast adequately carrying their roles.
James Cosmo is something of a standout as their grandfather in his one scene, telling of how their mum became more and more odd and reclusive until her death.
The plot is far from original with some half-decent jump scares along the way, though quite spaced apart in the short runtime.
