Latest Review
A Vengeful Ghost
What I loved most: Great landscapes from an era gone by
What I really hated: Slow moving
A young lawyer who recently lost his wife and has a young son cared for by a nanny is not doing very well at work. He is sent by his boss to a God-forsaken place to wrap up some legal matters of a client. The people there are weird and spooky because of a vengeful ghost who causes children to take their own lives. The scenery is drab and gloomy, making the atmosphere very haunting. In the end we get a showdown between the lawyer and the ghost. Average ending.
