Crimson Peak, a co-production with Universal Pictures, is a haunting gothic horror story directed by the master of dark fairy tales, Guillermo del Toro ("Pan's Labyrinth," "Hellboy" series, "Pacific Rim"), written by del Toro and Matthew Robbins and starring Mia Wasikowska, Jessica Chastain, Tom Hiddleston and Charlie Hunnam. In the aftermath of a family tragedy, an aspiring author is torn between love for her childhood friend and the temptation of a mysterious outsider. Trying to escape the ghosts of her past, she is swept away to a house that breathes, bleeds…and remembers.
This was a pretty good watch. Kind of wished I would have seen it in theaters instead of the overly dark bootleg version. Regardless - there were numerous parts that made me jump and the continuous tension building was great - especially with the score of the movie. The old English appearance of everything definitely gave it an overall even creepier feel throughout the movie.
I would recommend people checking this out. It was an enjoyable creepy/scary watch.
