"Penny Dreadful," is beautifully photographed film about a gorgeous young couple (Emily Vacchiano and Sebastian LaCause) living in a New York City townhouse haunted by the specter of a deranged killer, played the Screamfest Festival in Hollywood a few months ago and was by far the best film there. A truly unsettling tale that unfolds at a perfectly creepy pace and boasts a simple but surprising twist ending. The piece moves deliberately as the lovely young wife slowly unravels after moving into a new house, experiencing violent hallucinations of a murdered family. It's a downbeat, gory and well told film that provided the only real chills of the set of films presented in the showcase.
