The Innocents (1961)
7/10
A clever haunted horror movie
26 August 2013
One of the original haunted house and its haunted history movies, Innocents, does an interesting difference to the later haunted house adoptions. Although the plot has become nearby a cliché in the later horror movies and it is not too hard to guess how the events turn out, the movie still feels refreshing. One of the main reasons for that is the clever use of the camera and not to rely on silly shock effects like in today's horror movies. Also Deborah Kerr was a joy to watch and when she gets in the middle of the things, I actually felt sorry for her. That is something that doesn't happen with today's silly horror movie babysitters. Innocents is from the beginning to the end an interesting, clever and amusing movie to watch.
