Crimson Peak
Tom Hiddlestone is fast becoming the Brit film actor of the moment (his High Rise headlined 
the London Film Festival and our reviewer in…Maysa Moncao has had chance to see it). He stars as a seductive stranger who spirits away innocent Mia Wasikowska to his titular, mouldering mansion in this Guillermo del Torro directed horror, which follows a similar visual path to his Pan’s Labyrinth (2006). The trailer looks splendidly creepy and stunning, so lucky for horror fans this will be showing nationwide as a pre-Hallowe’en treat. See the official website for more.
Solace (2015)
Film review of Solace, the crime thriller that pits two psychics against one another: a serial killer who is many steps ahead of the police, and a retired doctor who is enlisted to catch him.
