The hound of the baskervilles 1988

The hound of the baskervilles 1988 They decide to just get out of there, but get lost and wind up at the very hospital where they were experimented on as kids. And they are being stalked by the ghost of a dead girl. This is a movie that doesnt feature a lot of scares, or for that matter, a lot of tension. Its mostly a lot of scenes that make you say, What the hell? They dont spend enough time developing the characters, so the psychological horror elements dont have the same impact they would if we were giving a compelling reason to care. By the time the mystery of the dead girl is unraveled, we merely greet the information with a shrug. The only extras are more Miss Horrorfest Webisodes. Lena Headey plays Gina McVey, a radiologist working in a hospital, which is a great job. She has a caring and successful boyfriend, and shes going to have dinner that night with her family to celebrate her father s birthday. Its a lovely dinner, only briefly interrupted by a mirror shattering and falling off the wall. Broken mirrors become a theme for the family, but before we can dwell on that, Gina sees someone driving her jeep down the road, and that someone looks just like her. She follows this person to her apartment, only to find this woman has pictures of her and her dad. Freaked out, she runs away, but before she can tell anyone, she gets into a car accident. She survives, but her memory doesnt. Thats not the only problem, as she notices changes in the personalities of the people around her. At first it could be dismissed as just a result of the car crash, but she quickly realizes something more sinister is at play here. Im of two minds when it comes to this movie. On the one hand, it does have a cool setup and the ending is effectively done. On the other hand, it has what could kindly be described as a deliberate pace. Glacial is another term that could be used. Furthermore, there is a tendency to try to be a little too stylish at the expense of all other factors. The slow-motion car crash is a perfect example of that, as a movie the hound of the baskervilles 1988 pacing issues such as this one really doesnt need to slow things down. Strong performances are the tie-breaker and make it worth checking out, the hound of the baskervilles 1988 there are too many flaws for any real replay value. Chris Carmack plays Sam Reide, a man with the ability to travel through time, sort of. He can send his consciousness back to any point in his life and inhabit his body. He uses this ability to help the cops the hound of the baskervilles 1988 crimes, with the help of his sister, Jenna. He pretends to be psychic, because its easier to explain that than being a time-traveler. Jenna is dependent on Sam for rent and food, but Jenna makes sure his brain doesnt meltdown during his jumps. Shes a little messed up, because when they were kids there was a fire that killed both their parents.
