Anyone who thinks this is the scariest horror movie ever hasn't seen Salem's Lot 1979
I found The Innocents really boring and dated. Not scary at all. I switched it off after an hour. Horrible and overrated.
shareIt's a more subtle, psychological sort of horror that steadily, implacably unsettles rather than the sort that blatantly shock the viewer. We're inside the psyche of a woman who may be disintegrating mentally as her own innermost fears & uncertainties take hold of her, or a woman who may well be seeing actual ghosts. There's room for both sorts of horror.
