Misleading...
I thought this movie was supposed to be about a haunted place, but it is, in fact, about infidelity. The story focuses on the Reverend's wife and the handyman's affair almost exclusively; so much that the supposed "paranormal" events look totally out of place. This movie did not get anything right. It didn't look or feel like 1930 at all (I've seen documentaries about the 30s). The actors seemed wrong for their respective roles. The events were unrealistic and the characters' response to them illogical. The movie didn't seem to know where it wants to go or what it wants to do with itself. The paranormal events were so few, so exaggerated, discorded and random that it'd make you think that, perhaps, they were edited into this movie from another movie by mistake. The description: "A Reverend and his wife discover their new home has a deadly secret." O.K., what "deadly secret"? Unless I missed something, this "secret" was never revealed... I really don't understand the paranormal connection at all. This movies is about a cheating wife, not about paranormal activity. I didn't get what the ghost drivel, that was randomly shoved into a movie of entirely different genre, had to do with anything or what connection it was supposed to have to the story. Basically, the whole thing is poorly pieced together and a bit messy. Perhaps it would appeal to "drama"- or even "crime"-lovers, but to label it as "mystery" is highly misleading to say the least.
Movie is nothing like story on cover
The story goes: "In 1930, Reverend Lionel Foyster and his wife Marianne move into the Borley Rectory when Reverend Foyster is named rector of the parish. The couple's peaceful existence is soon shattered by a series of unexplained occurrences which quickly escalate into a heart stopping nightmare." I think they must have put the wrong description on the cover. Actual film is: Reverend hires handyman. Reverend's wife has sex with handyman. Reverend finds out. Handyman and wife plot to kill reverend. Reverend kills handyman and wife instead. The End. Unexplained occurrences? Handyman gets beaten up in bed. Scarecrow found in bed. Bones found in cupboard. Woman walks about in graveyard in white frock. Some person in a black hood and white mask appears a couple of times. If there was anything else I must have missed it when I dozed off. Summary: One big yawn and a waste of time and money. Dreadful.
rubbish
Got this in a pound shop. 99p over priced. No relation to the true Borley Rectory story at all. No supernatural goings on worth reporting. OK, the actors weren't bad, but I felt embarrassed for them . Hope Suzie gets better exposure though, she's good . So slow, and not 1930's at all.
An hour and a half wasted.............
Well, it started off badly...............then got worse! The acting is worse than any amateur dramatic production I've ever seen and that's just for starters. Borley Rectory is/was one of the most haunted places in the UK, the stories surrounding it are extremely interesting. This film didn't touch on anything remotely interesting at all. It seems like this film was made in a hurry and on a budget, it also seems as though the person who made it didn't research Borley Rectory at all. Hopefully there's another film about this place that's much better.
Terrible
This film is a shocker, and not in the way it intended. It takes a while for anything paranormal to happen, and even when it does, it is neither scary nor original. The 'ghostly' apparitions look more like people who have mistakenly turned up to the wrong house for a fancy dress party, and the 'special effects' (or 'effect'- I only saw one) are amateurish. On occasion good performances can lift a poor film, but unfortunately, in this case, the acting is terrible. This is not helped by a very poor script which isn't even authentic to the time period. Usually I try to persevere with films, but I had to give up on this after an hour, as I could not bear it any longer. Please don't waste you time and money on this
