The Skeleton Key (DVD)

I like buying dvds, especially horror films, I decided to buy The Skeleton Key because for two reasons: one reason - is cheaper, two reason - I was after this movie for ages.
I like this dvd, it is good but it can be confusing some bits of the movie especially towards to the end - it should have done better.

The Skeleton Key sees us following the story of Caroline, a care worker, who goes to a mansion in the outskirts of New Orleans to help an elderly lady take care of her husband. Caroline's curiosity after learning some mysterious thing sbaout the couple and the house they live in, she uses the Skeleton Key to explore the house and comes across more than she had bargained for.

Everyone in the movie acts superbly in this chilling and sometimes quite scary movie from the same writer as "The Ring". There's plenty of suspense and a fantastic twist towards the end of the story as we learn the truth behind the couple who live at the mansion. It's a really great storyline, quite scary although perhaps not on the same level as "The Ring".

It will keep you entertained though and certainly worth watching if you are into voodoo or anything slightly similar. If you like really scary movies you will almost certainly enjoy this. not particularly gory, but chilling nevertheless.

i loved this dvd. What a great twist i love films that play on your mind for days and this defo does. This film is in my top 5 of favourite films.

Average predictable movie, John Hurt acts to his usual high standard and is ably supported by the rest of the cast.
The storyline is well written with a final twist although you can see it coming well before the end.
The high definition picture quality is better than the standard DVD release although it is nothing to write home about.
Well worth getting a copy at the right price while it is still easily obtainable.

A good horror,bit jumpy in places,there is a good twist at the end, no good if you are scared easy, worth watching

I absolutely thought the film way excellant, it has you watching from beginning to end not wanting to leave it, really good twist to the story, you feel sorry for certain characters and then again dont. make sure you watch it with someone, because the next day and the next, you will be saying 'Oh yes he did that, Oh and she was that, and they were?' everyone needs to view this film.
I had already seen it ages ago, and just had to buy it to watch again, and need my family to see it. A1 FILM...........

Very good film, with a good twist to it, subtle horror with main focus on an old man who is in need of a nurse as his wife is finding it difficult to continue to care for him alone, however the real reason is much more sinister, good movie, definatley worth watching.

I like this film because i found it interesting from the very start. It made me think about the situation within the film, along with the characters. Once i thought i new a character something else would then make me question that them! It is a very clever film, well thought out, with surprising turn around at the end. If you like a few twists in your film, a film with a difference then this is the film for you. Both gripping and jumpy at times well worth a watch.

I heard this film was very scary but I didn't find it scary at all. A well below average film. The very end was the best bit!

I always wanted to see the Skeleton Key following the enjoyment of the Ring and The Grudge.
Slightly disappointed thou as it wasn't as scary as the other two. It had a great twist at the end.
Definately glad to have this addition to my collection.
Glad I've seen it.

Good film, starring Kate Hudson. She looks after old people who are dying, and fed up with her current job takes a job from the paper. The job is to take care of an elderly man who has had a stroke. The man's wife seems a bit wierd, and there's an attic that's even wierder. And the mystery moves on from there. Although similar films have been made with a young girl who goes for a job and discovers something spooky, it's one of those better films, and definitely worth watching. Great acting, not really that scary but still a good film.

A great story line again. A few twists and good acting. An interesting ending.
I don't think many people I know who have seen this have been disappointed.

Arrived in lightening time, great seller. Quite a few scary bits when you are not ready for them.
Agreat film to curl up in front of the telly with. To all buyers try this film out . I would give it a 9/10.

AMAZING FILM. However, it's a film thatvyou watch once because there is a twist at the end, and if you watch it twice, you know it's coming and spoils it
