poppyshake Posted June 1, 2011 Posted June 1, 2011 So who's looking forward to the film out this year with Daniel Radcliffe? I must say I am and pics of Daniel on set look great. Quote
Kylie Posted June 2, 2011 Posted June 2, 2011 I can't wait to see this! Daniel looks great in that pic. Quote
Weave Posted June 2, 2011 Posted June 2, 2011 Here is the trailer ~ http://www.imdb.com/video/imdb/vi1371774233/ Quote
Kylie Posted October 14, 2011 Posted October 14, 2011 Here's another trailer for the movie. It looks terrific; I can't wait to see it! Quote
Weave Posted October 14, 2011 Posted October 14, 2011 Thanks Kylie, I can't wait to see it I was in Waterstones during the week and there is a new edition of 'The Woman in Black' made by profile books, its the same idea of 'The Little Hand', also by Susan Hill, the profile version is lovely, they both are ~ Quote
Kylie Posted October 14, 2011 Posted October 14, 2011 (edited) Gorgeous! I have to have! Edited October 14, 2011 by Kylie Quote
poppyshake Posted October 14, 2011 Posted October 14, 2011 Me too .. and I already have it in another format .. oh bother. It's too good though and I already have 'The Small Hand' so must have the matching pair. Are they the same size Weave or is The Woman in Black' larger as in pic? Looking forward to the film everso Quote
Kirsty_S Posted October 15, 2011 Posted October 15, 2011 It was because I saw the trailer of the new film and it looked scary that I had a look on amazon for the book and luckily my library had a copy of it, it took much hunting, but I found it!! I really enjoyed it, I found it very atmospheric and it did not disappoint. I just hope the film does live up to the book when it finally comes out. Quote

I saw the made for TV version about 20 years ago and that was well scary. Quote
Weave Posted October 16, 2011 Posted October 16, 2011 I have a copy of 'The Woman in Black' somewhere (it went missing during the decoration mania), I would love the matching books (on the to buy list ) I saw the made for TV version about 20 years ago and that was well scary. Hi VF, I have seen scenes from that version and it looks very scary, I remember someone posting on IMDB that the woman in black wasn't scary ~ gotta say, I found her pretty scary. Quote
Star Posted November 29, 2011 Posted November 29, 2011 I saw the trailer for this at the pics the other night and the film looks really good. I may actually read the book now. I've not read a spooky book before Quote

Taïr Posted February 8, 2012 Posted February 8, 2012 OMG I really like the summmary, and with all your review it just popped up on the top on my TBR list. The trailer give me the chickens dots >< (Yeaah, I'm easly scared, but keep watching scary stuff). The only thing is I usually prefer watching the movie before reading the book, because I'm always disapointed in adaptation if I read the book first ><. But I've read that the author herself enjoyed a lot the movie so maybe I can try read the book first this time Quote
Fruska Posted February 14, 2012 Posted February 14, 2012 I went to see the film on Sunday. I read the book years ago and it creeped me out and the film did full justice to it. I got home in the dark and I was rushing to get in the door! I must read the book again because I'm sure the film was different in places. I thought it was way too scary for a 12A!!! Quote
Andie P Posted April 19, 2012 Posted April 19, 2012 (edited) If you like Susan Hill's particular style of Ghost Story Janet, then can I also recommend The Man in the Picture and The Mist in the Mirror, both are truly creepy. These are now on my ever growing wish list!! Thank you!! Half way through The Women in Black and it is creepy! I love how Susan Hill writes, in such a subtle but clever way.Wish I could write like that! I have just ordered The Mist in the Mirror from Susan Hill's website and I have received a copy of The Man in the Picture for free.....and that's not the only thing....it's signed!!!! Woop Woop it has made my day!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Andie x Edited April 19, 2012 by frankie Quote

Andie P Posted April 28, 2012 Posted April 28, 2012 I have just finished reading the book and I loved it! I saw a trailer for the film and thought the film deviated from the book quite a lot...I am no film maker but I suppose this is something that they need to do to keep the excitement and concentration of the watcher?? I don't know but I hope the film doesn't ruin it for me...will be watching it tonight and will let you know. Andie P x Quote
MythologyNut01 Posted October 22, 2012 Posted October 22, 2012 I love the creepy atmosphere of the book, and it is actually scary in places, which I like, because I usually don't get scared when reading horror. The movie was pretty good Quote
4candles Posted November 15, 2012 Posted November 15, 2012 Is it just me? I was really disappointed with this book after reading so many great reviews about it. I thought the overall plot was brilliant, and it had the potential to be a fabulous book, but it was too short, badly written and seemed rushed to me. Didn't find it creepy at all. I was gutted.
