1 : EL ORFANATO (THE ORPHANAGE)


Why I chose it?

Involvement of Guillermo Del Toro (Pan's Labyrinth, Hellboy); a bit of a buzz surrounding it from critics and viewers alike (which isn't always a good thing).

Where?

Cinema 2, Haymarket

Comments?

Quite an enthralling psychological thriller with superbly handled supernatural elements; great use of sound; plenty of "edge of your seat, hold your breath" sequences.

Would I pay to see it?

Yes! Full price!!

Rating?

9 out of 10

Post Movie Quote:

"Scary and frightening, but ultimately, heartbreaking. A great start to the 100!!" Daryl Nilbett (to no one in particular).
