| Details: |
When a boarder at the Mariell manor reportedly sees ghosts, Professor David Ash (Aidan Quinn) makes a house call to investigate. As he attempts to rationalize the possibility of ghosts, he falls for the alluring Christina Mariell (Kate Beckinsale) and soon finds himself spotting specters as well. <br> <br> Based on the novel by James Herbert, HAUNTED is director Lewis Gilbert's first endeavor into horror, and he succeeds spectacularly. The film features his quick-paced style of action, evinced in his James Bond films, THE SPY WHO LOVED ME, MOONRAKER, and YOU ONLY LIVE TWICE, but is also reminiscent of his noir-like films, CAST A DARK SHADOW and TOUGH GUY. A drastic departure from his previous film, 1991's light, feel-good STEPPING OUT, HAUNTED is a modern take on an old-fashioned macabre tale and an essential film for any horror fan. |
