A doctor working in an insane asylum is left the entire estate of a patient he cared for after he does but things won't go so smoothly with rumours of how the previous owners family died hauntings and a lost fortune that many of the locals are mad to get their hands on . Which will get them first greed or the spirits of the dead ?
Dark Places is a great film full of intrigue and suspense it also boasts a fantastic cast which all do an amazing job. Usually when Christopher Lee is onboard he steals the show unless Peter Cushing is around of course but here it's Joan Collins she is absolutely stunningly beautiful here and you can't take your eyes off her. She plays that bitchy sultry role so so well. The house looks amazing inside once it's restored to its former glory which is a great setting for some ghostly shenanigans.
One of my favourite scenes was when the doctor is staying in another house across a few fields and he notices the lights coming on in the child's old playroom it's just a fantastic scene with the fogg and the eerie house standing proud through the murky night.
Enjoyed this one alot and who doesn't love the creepy voices of dead children playing up stairs in a creepy house
