Ghost Stories (I) (2017)
3/10
Hugely disappointing. Don't believe the hype.

Warning: Spoilers
Was really looking forward to this, but what a let down. Not scary, stories with no proper ending(terrible ending for the film itself), and just a lack of authenticity. I was annoyed from the start with the flashback clips, if they wanted them to look like Super 8 clips, why not film them in super 8?Much has been made of the portmanteau style of the film, but if you're expecting it to have any of the charm of the old Amicus ones, you'll be severely disappointed. As a British horror buff, I'm sad to be so negative, but when a film has been built up quite a lot, and you're expecting something half decent and are presented with this, then it's not surprising to be somewhat disappointed. I advise giving it a wide berth.
