Weeknight Watchearly ratingWhy it’s a Weeknight Watch
With soft box office and little lasting buzz, it's a mixed bag. Fine if it's on; don't plan your night around it.
Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.Is it for you?
- Who'll love it
- Best for fans of a good haunting and people who enjoy a knot in their stomach. The scares come from the creaks and shadows as much as the jumps. Very British, in all the best ways.
- The mood
- Scary.
- The pace
- Tense from early on, at 1 hr 31 min.
- What might put you off
- Made in 1969: an older pace and style.
- Not one for anyone who hates jump scares.
Teenagers in an old mansion are being murdered one by one. The survivors must discover who among them is the killer before they're all finished off.
