REVIEW
Crimson Peak
by Eric Hillis
The gothic horror genre
has struggled to survive in
recent years as it’s assumed
that modern audiences lack
the patience to invest in the
sort of drama that’s based on
mood and atmosphere rather
than jump scares and gore.

The revitalised Hammer Films,
once the natural home of
gothic, have only returned to
their roots twice, for an adaptation of The Woman in Black
and its sequel, but neither film
came close to recreating the
studio’s glory days.
