Twisty and atmospheric gothic mystery. Ben Kingsley, Michael Caine, and Kate Beckinsale are all good. Jim Sturgess was alittle wooden in his part though. It’s almost like the 19th century version of that movie “A Cure For Wellness”.

Considering the rather well-rounded cast (including heavyweights like Michael Caine and Ben Kingsley) it is surprising this wasn't given a bigger release. That being said - while I found things a tad predictable, the story is still intriguing, the characters interesting and setting suitably creepy. A clever Gothic nugget (based on a story from the original master of horror, Edgar Allan Poe) - if you are tried of "modern" horror, this is different and welcome.
