St M Visually stunning with gorgeous sets, costumes & creepy atmospheres, a feast for the eyes, amidst a slow & depraved storyline that became wearisome on the brain. But that mansion is epic! Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 06/04/25 Full Review Claudio C Crimson Peak (2015) Beware of Crimson Peak (11,721 – 13 Jan 2017 / 26 May 2025 – by Claudio Carvalho) In the turn of the Twentieth Century in Buffalo, New York, the aspiring writer Edith Cushing (Mia Wasikowska) is the daughter of the wealthy entrepreneur Carter Cushing (Jim Beaver). Edith saw the ghost of her mother that warned her to beware of Crimson Peak when she was a child and presently, she is writing a ghost story. When she visits a publisher that is a friend of her father, she stumbles upon her childhood friend, the ophthalmologist Dr. Alan McMichael (Charlie Hunnam), who has returned from overseas and is opening an office in the same building. Out of the blue, she meets the English baronet Sir Thomas Sharpe (Tom Hiddleston), who has come to Buffalo with his sister Lucille Sharpe (Jessica Chastain) to seek investors to his machine that operates with clay. He has a meeting with Carter Crushing and other businessmen, but Carter refuses to invest in his invention. During the night, the ghost of Edith's mother visits her and warns Edith again to beware of Crimson Peak. Soon Thomas seduces Edith and Carter hires a private detective to investigate the lives of Thomas and Lucille. A couple of days later, the detective brings a report to Carter disclosing dark secrets from the past of the siblings. Carter pays a large amount to Thomas to end his relationship with Edith, but he is brutally murdered. Thomas explains to Edith his attitude and they get married and travel to England to live in his derelict mansion over a red clay mine at Allerdale Hall with Lucille. Edith starts to see a red ghost and discovers that an Italian woman has sent a letter to him. Then she becomes weak and coughs blood. What is happening to Edith and what is the mystery of Allerdale Hall and the siblings Sharpe? "Crimson Peak" is a combination of drama and ghost story by Guillermo del Toro. The performances, direction, locations, cinematography and costumes are magnificent. The conclusion is predictable, and the plot uses many clichés, but the film is highly entertaining even for those that are not fans of horror. My vote is seven.

A visually mediocre, poorly casted and soullessly conceptualised bucket of mop water... 3/10. Rated 1.5/5 Stars •  Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 04/12/25 Full Review geovanny p perfeito ,do inicio ao fim Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/13/25 Full Review Ray T This movie is my absolute favourite. It's so hauntingly beautiful, I find myself getting lost in it every. single. time. I hardly have words to describe the feelings this film evokes. Between the set and costume design it is as though I have been transported back in time.
