Product Description

Based on the classic ghost story, The Woman In Black tells the tale of Arthur Kipps (Daniel Radcliffe), a lawyer who is forced to leave his young son and travel to a remote village to attend to the affairs of the recently deceased owner of Eel Marsh House.

Working alone in the old mansion, Kipps begins to uncover the town's tragic and tortured secrets and his fears escalate when he discovers that local children have been disappearing under mysterious circumstances. When those closest to him become threatened by the vengeful woman in black, Kipps must find a way to break the cycle of terror.

1.0 out of 5 stars UK release ruined by Censorship. 21 Aug 2012
Format:Blu-ray
Don't waste your time with the UK DVD and Blu Ray release. It has been reedited, cut, images darkened and sound altered, all to change it from being a 16 rating down to a 12.

Seen as how this excellent British film is a big comeback for the legendary Hammer Horror film company, it seems ironic that the UK has been landed with a heavily censored version of the film.

Instead, go to Amazon.de and buy Die Frau in Schwarz, the fully uncut German release, seen as the director intended it. Switching to the 2nd audio track gives you English (German being 1st). Picture and Sound quality are excellent, and with Germany being in the same region code area, both the DVD and Blu Ray will play on UK machines.

5.0 out of 5 stars Dark and scary! 6 April 2012
Format:DVD|Amazon Verified Purchase
I wasn't sure what to expect having read the brilliant book by Susan Hill, but was really glad that I went to see this film! Fantastic, dark and eerie house (Unlike previous film that was shot in mostly daylight - not even slightly scary, and was therefore not faithful to the book).
As I enjoyed Harry Potter, thought I'd keep visualising Daniel Radcliffe doing that Potter 'Look' and that I wouldn't be able to take him seriously in this role, but he was great, very impressed. He doesn't say that much, but his role as the suffering Arthur Kipps was spot on. There are extra scary bits in this film that aren't in the book plus a bit missing that I was a little surprised about, (whistling to dog) as it's a particularly eerie bit, but nevertheless, a film to watch and enjoy if you like creepy films without blood and guts,(and in my case, order on blu-ray and watch many times on a windy rainy night!). The best film I've seen in ages.

4.0 out of 5 stars Hammer is back 28 July 2012
By NB
Format:DVD|Amazon Verified Purchase
Hammer began in the 50s and died a death after reigning as Kings of Horror. When they were resurrected, wisely they did not showcase their disappointing Wakewood but went ahead with the proven Scandinavian 'Let Me In'. The Japanese long ago realised that there is a huge market for the old fashioned creepy tale and Hammer turned to the classic 'Woman In Black' to revive the Gothic haunted house theme. And with what gusto! The first half is kept tense with bangs and effects and clever camera angles - all contrived of course, but stylish and skilfully managed to keep the nervous viewer on the edge of the seat. Atmospheric and engaging, the movie suceeds by merit of its cinematography and its attention to detail, so much so that you readily forgive some of the staged shock effects. The success of the production has settled the point - the old ghost story begs to be reborn and in the Gothic sphere there is plenty by MR James, Algernon Blackwood et al for them to continue to produce top quality hauntings for years to come if they so wished. Welcome back, Hammer!

4.0 out of 5 stars Weird film
This film was weird but it was a good watch. I did not feel that I would want to watch it time and time again like I do with other films as the story is a little too simplistic. Read more
