At Edbrook Hall, David meets beautiful Christina and

Comments:
I
liked this ghost story. it has a real story to tell.
I don't like many ghost stories but this didn't contain
excessive gore. My only complaint is the nudity. It
was not necessary. The two leads, Aidan Quinn and
Kate Beckinsale used body doubles. The movie would
have been just as effective to just not use body doubles
at all. The actors were effective enough on their
own to display the passion they had for each other
and to show the daring nature of the Christina Marielle
character. Quinn and Beckinsale have great onscreen
chemistry despite their real life 14 year age difference.
Anthony Andrews is effectively creepy. I was happy
to come upon this gem.
