Love me some Gothic horror and god damned if I wasn’t satisfied. Gorgeous, had a bit of fun addressing some of the more problematic trappings of the genre in how it treats women.

Remade some of the amazing shots from the original film, maintained a fantastic creeping horror and dread, lots of truly disgusting practical effects, and some original and well realised additions.

Absolutely fab.

    It is defs campy. Campy purple pros is essential to Gothic horror, it’s part of what I love haha.

    You just can’t get that shit anywhere else. I’m a big fan of the supererogatory phrase
