Secrets in the Walls (2010 TV Movie)
7/10
Full of clichés, but still entertaining
25 January 2013
Warning: Spoilers
This haunted house movie contains "all" the clichés of the genre. The spirit trapped in the house where its bodily remains are still hidden. The ghost in the bathroom mirror. The research into the house's past at the public library. The jewelry box starting to play its tune by itself. The spiritualist lady. And so on.

Still, the movie is not over when one believed it would be over - with the finding of the skeleton. Instead, there is a new, sinister development - although this was also, for a horror movie buff like me, quite predictable. As for the ghost, it was a little tame. It ought to have been more scary-looking.

Still, the movie was quite entertaining, and sometimes even exciting and a little scary! I also liked how they portrayed the single mum-two kids relation, and the mother's feelings about her little girls growing up. I could relate a lot to that!
