Redwarmin This movie is the proof that the world is becoming a sick and dumb place

InformationRap This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.

Frances Chung Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable

Jakoba True to its essence, the characters remain on the same line and manage to entertain the viewer, each highlighting their own distinctive qualities or touches.

leahbrown-86134 The Imagery in this film is just incredible and I didn't expect it to be so subtle and yet so beautiful when I purchased the film. I had wanted to watch it for a long time and when I did I certainly wasn't disappointed. Whereas I wouldn't go as far as calling this film scary and because of this it may immediately seem disappointing to some fans of horror, it's ambiguity and Gothic setting make it well worth a watch.

jhanks-45230 I'm not sure how "forgotten" this movie is, but I had never heard of it until recently. I love the genre of horror, and this is as good as it gets. While it has nothing in the way of gore or jump scares, the plot develops into something truly twisted and disturbing. All the roles are very well acted and convincing, which makes the deeply creepy subject matter even creepier. If you like horror/Gothic stories at all, this one is a must.

elvircorhodzic THE INNOCENTS is a supernatural Gothic horror about a governess who watches over two children and comes to fear that their house is haunted by ghosts.The young and beautiful Miss Giddens applies for a job as a governess. A wealthy bachelor thinks, regardless of her inexperience, that she is an ideal for his niece and nephew. He travels frequently and does not have time for his small relatives. She accepts full responsibility for the children. Previous governess is suddenly died. New governess has found a decent and friendly girl and later, a charming and flattering boy. However, children are hiding some strange secrets. Miss Giddens is upset by unexplained voices and by several visions of a woman and man...Psychology and an eerie atmosphere, through a strange combination of a supernatural and traditional work very well. Close-ups between apparitions and emotions, with change of soundtracks are almost perfect.Deborah Kerr (Miss Giddens) is an extremely complex character, who quickly accepts anomalous situations and at the same time struggling with her own hallucinations and sexual frustrations. However, it is not a dark or irrational character. She is an entirely healthy woman, who is faced with a mystery of the past and ghostly appearances. We, actually, look the events through her eyes.Mr. Clayton has successfully set a trap. Ms. Kerr has offered great performance.Martin Stephens (Miles) and Pamela Franklin (Flora) are the core of the problem as innocent and sinister children at the same time. However, they are, in fact, confused.Are innocent children possessed and thrown into a vortex of perverse sexual secrets or are they victims of a morbid young woman who has a lush imagination and perverse sexual desire!? Decide for yourself.

Irishchatter This really does remind you of the old movie "Village of the Damned" and also "Jane Eyre" without the romantic setting! I thought Deborah Kerr was excellent at playing the young governess. She really is sweet and she doesn't need the role to prove that. She's a very talented actress and it's a shame that I've never heard of her before. Even if I watched "Village of the Damned" that she was in, I still didn't find out much about her until this movie!I thought Martin Stephens and Pamela Franklin as the children were great little actors. When they said "dear" or "my love", it does creep you out especially in a horror setting like this. I wonder did they notice that they were doing a actual horror film or did they not bother their heads? It's interesting like in Village of the Damned, I could figure out that the children knew they were cursed but what about the kids in this film? That'll be a mystery for me haha!Anyways its a good film, I give this 8/10!
