The haunting movie review The film “The haunting” is a horror movie starred by Liam Neeson as Dr. Morrow, Lili Taylor as Nell and Catherine Zeta-Jones as Theo. It is directed by Jan de Bont. The action takes place in a breathtaking castle which was built 130 ago. In addition the haunted castle looks quite dark, even though all the rooms are pretty spacious and incredibly astonishing. Moreover, there are pictures of the ancient owners, Hugh Crain and his wife. The main character is Nell, whose mother has just passed away. In order to get money she takes part in an experiment lead by Dr. Marrow. When she arrives at the castle she meets to her fellows: Theo and Luke. In spite of the fact that the members of the group believe that the experiment deals to research the issues about insomnia, Dr. Marrow actually pretends to look into the fear. In the course of the film the action develops dramatically when Nell starts listening children’s voices that ask for help so as to save them and free them of being in the purgatory. The film has an expected ending which Nell confronts to Hugh Crain, whose children died before they were twelve years old, and she overcomes him. I was strongly impressed by special effects. Even it seems as if the house has got its own life. Furthermore what I like the most is the sound because as I see it, this is very important to transmit fear and anxiety. I would highly recommend this film. In fact, I would greatly encourage you watch it in the cinema especially for the sound and the picture.
