This is a house of death

Warning: Spoilers
MAY CONTAIN A MINOR PLOT SPOILER OR TWO

This is a TV mini-series consisting of three 45 minute episodes. In August 1977, the Hodgson family has been bothered by a rash of poltergeist. It seems to center around Janet (Eleanor Worthington-Cox) an 11 year old girl who likes to play pranks and tell scary stories. They call in Maurice Grosse (Timothy Spall) who coincidentally had a daughter Janet who died one year ago on a motorcycle accident. It seems Janet is being bothered by a poltergeist named Joe with a dirty mouth. They make a pretty big deal over it so they can run a mini-series.

I like the film, although this haunting wasn't too horrific...that "based on a true story" thing tends to water things down a bit as reality is dry. Interesting to watch, just wished it went somewhere.

Guide: F-bomb. No sex or nudity.
