 You Know, I'd Have Stolen that Clock on My Way Out...
Submitted on: 2009-10-25 |

I've been going on a rip lately, borrowing every horror movie available from my local library, wallowing in disappointment night after night. This film was different enough to capture my interest, with a beautiful haunted house filmed carefully to show the subtle colors and textures. I enjoyed seeing a cast that I didn't recognize for once, and the acting was above par - I never yelled at the television, nor flung cheezy poofs across the living room. I'd like to see what the director would do with better backing in the future; talented filming is a rarity nowadays, and these scenes were smooth and composed. The set decoration was nice, but I wonder if anyone would leave antiques lying around a college rental.
I wanted more detail about the history of a spirit clock, but perhaps this was just a plot device that the filmmakers invented. I'm not sure how the rental company would be able to put that many people together in one place who all sported "dark pasts" and minor clock-fixing skills, so perhaps that's why it took two hundred years for those spirits to get it right. Even though this was a bit predictable, I didn't go nuts hollering, "Well, what are the odds of that?" since it kept my interest and was fun to watch. Unusual.

| This is a B movie. It wasnt bad, but the one redeeming value of it was that Billie Piper was in it which is the reason I ordered it in the first place. That being said, I am satisfied with my order. |

I'm not much of a horror film fanatic. I've seen a few, but I'm not overly into the intense ones.
This film was perfect for someone like me. The film has it's scary parts, but it isn't totally horrific to the point of wetting yourself as you watch. The story is rather good, involving an old mansion used for student housing and a spirit clock (which is apparently used to communicate between the spirit world).
The characters are rather good. There's Jenny, the main character, played by Billie Piper (Doctor Who, Secret Diary of a Call Girl) who basically informs the other characters about the spirit world and the strange happenings going on in the house. Her mother was a spirit medium, and so she has been around that sort of thing for as long as she can remember.
The film does have a bit of blood and gore, but nothing to the degree of some of the other things I've seen, so it's fine for anyone who is a bit queasy, I suppose.
I thought the film was really great, but if you're looiking for the scariest horror film of your life, you've probably got the wrong film. It's more of a psycological thriller, if I had to place it.
Hope you enjoy it, if you're going to buy it!!
I certainly did. |

Spirit Trap with Billie Piper

| I'm a Billie Piper fan, so I was curious to see her acting in something else other than "Dr. Who". She did quite well! The movie plot was different than some I've seen. A very unique ending than expected too! Very happy with the movie! It should be watched maybe on a scary night or around Halloween to help set the mood and adventure. A special note also: (This is not for younger or small children! There is strong Language, Abuse, Violence and Nudity that is not for the younger crowd at all! It should be marked more clearly on this, which it is not!) There is an added section for each actors take on the movie, from their point of view. They also give a voice on their thoughts on each others performances and how they got along while filming this movie that adds a great personal touch! Looking for more work from Billie Piper, her career is taking a great turn, and climbing to unexpected highs! |

| I loved this movie, it was intruging, and suspenceful. It had little bit of everything, it was very good, in my opinion, you have to watch it, and judge for yourself. Because everyone has thier own taste. |
