Title: Under-Use of a Promising Young Talent
Review: I purchased this item from Amazon. Reviewer Linda Pagliuco says it very well. Yes, there is the creepy house -- very well done -- excellent lighting, or rather, non-lighting. The Gothic theme played to the hilt. But it seems like there is very little acting for Daniel Radcliffe to actually do. Yes, his Arthur character is brave to the point of being foolhardy. And Radcliffe plays the part well. But there doesn't seem to be much to it. I bought it mainly to see him, but I also wish to give credit to the other actors. Ciaren Hinds especially is very sympathetic and I like the job he did. But I still was underwhelmed with the story as a whole. Finally, I was dissatisfied with the ending -- too awful in some ways, too "Hollywood" in others.
