At the Gate of the Ghost Blu-ray Review

Thai filmmaker M.L. Bhandevanop Devakul’s recreation of the Kurosawa Akira classic Rashomon is visually stunning, but a classic should never be fooled around with. This remake misses all the nuance of the Kurosawa original.

Ti West’s The Innkeepers is reminiscent of many other haunted house films in its style and technique, conjuring up Hitchcock classics and Kubrick’s The Shining, but it ultimately fails to deliver on the scares.
