As part of the spooky season, a spooky film seemed in order.
The Others is a virile haunted-house movie, offering an array of tension, mystery, and drama. Nicole Kidman plays devoted Christian and mother Grace Stewart, whose life has landed her in a cold, lonely mansion in Jersey with her two children and a few servants. As Grace awaits the return of her husband from the Second World War, life in her isolation becomes terrifyingly interesting when the children begin seeing ghosts, and strange occurrences begin appearing around the house. As the film develops, Grace must confront the unknown whilst protecting her children and keeping her faith.
A film of two halves, viewers may find the first hour a little tedious, with little more than odd noises around the mansion to arouse interest. However, the second half more than makes up for this, the twists and turns will haunt you and get you checking all the rooms in your house before bed!
