Happy Thanksgiving, American readers.

(If this does not apply to you, happy day after Doctor Who Day, or happy On the Origin of Species Day, or happy Oh Crap It's Thirty Days To Christmas Tomorrow And You Haven't Done Any Shopping.)

The Awakening

Rebecca Hall, Dominic West, Imelda Staunton, BBC Films, Scottish Screen and the creator of Ghostwatch get together to be rather autumnal and bleak with a few good jump scares and a bit too much going on.

Trailers: something sentimental where Tom Hanks dies on the 11th of September, Roman Polanski makes a play, the trailer of the year although with a different tagline.

And it would be mad if they didn't show this, Hammer's The Woman In Black. Which I plan to go see, though due to starring Daniel Radcliffe I suspect it will suffer the same problem as the American version of The Grudge starring Sarah Michelle Gellar straight after Buffy - failure to believe a ghost would cause the hero much trouble after seven years fighting monsters and saving the world.
