This is supposed to be one of the scariest movies of all time etc etc, but having seen the remake, plus many many horror films from 50, 60, 70 years ago i can only say that this was laughable. Everything from the acting, to the lurid green make-up worn by 'The Woman' was just hilarious. To make matters worse, the names and places and some of the finer details of the story have been changed from the novel and end up making the plot more confusing. To top it off it's filmed in a strange coloured filter that gives each shot a peculiar 'surreal' look so it's like being in a dream or an acid trip. Cannot berate myself enough for saying this but it actually makes me miss Daniel Radcliffe's character.
Don't bother with this.
