Who casted this junk?

It actually wasn't SO terrible until they have this like 30 yrold guy getting pushed around by an old lady and crying for his mommy? Like... wtf? If he was a 12 year old kid it would have been better. It just didn't make sense. Also did anyone notice his hand wasn't injured in the end after she cut it? Ugh It just must have been so embarrassing for this actor. I was embarrassed watching it

Not bad, Better than expected

An English Haunting is a decent film. It is spooky. Well acted, sort of, not bad. The settings were nice. There is even a creepy old guy. Nice little twist towards the end. Like I said, not bad

Like Bad Fan Fiction

A woman who appears to have just walked out of the 1990s has an adult son who is ostensibly normal who dresses like it's 1936, and the grandpa dying of dementia looks like he was in a 1980s hair metal band. The background music is repetitive and reminds me of a video game. I had to Google to find out this was supposed to be the 1960s. Could have fooled me.

This movie is not the worst haunted house film I've ever watched, but it's not really good. It's very uneven drifting between parts that are mysterious or disturbing to things that seem utterly implausible i.e. The nurse wandering on the moors for like a month? HOW? WHY?

I'm only left to conclude that this was a terrible inaccurate work of fan fiction.

Location details

Surprisingly good. You can't beat a British ghost story. No information on where the house actually is so did some research of my own. I noticed that the Associate Producers of the film are Sir John and Lady Shuckburgh. A search reveals that it was filmed at the Shuckburgh Country House near Little Shuckburgh in Warwickshire. I hope that this is of interest to you all!

Not great but not horrible

I truly don't get the 1 star reviews of this movie. The acting wasn't great but it wasn't that bad. I especially love the one guys review who says he turned off the movie due to some mistake with a cigarette. Delusional.

That being said this movie is pretty cliched. You'll see the ending from a mile away once you figure out what is going on. Regardless, the cinematography was nice, acting was passable. Worth a watch if you are really into horror.

Goofs
Though set in the England of the 1960's two bottles of wine consumed by the mother are clearly seen to have computerised barcodes on their labels and the half bottle of whiskey found on the floor has the very modern 'UK Duty' paid logo on its label.
