Visually, Haggard manages to create a beautifully staged period horror by capturing the times and making the most of it's brooding countryside and quiet rural life. What gave it such an embracing atmosphere. The beautiful backdrop works rather well with the contrast to the devilishly acts occurring in the peaceful area. Attachment 252945 |
One of my favorites quite bleak and great atmosphere.
