It wouldn’t be February with at least one horror film in the can, and Winchester is the latest penny dreadful to try and win the market in this genre-friendly time frame.
Based on the true story of the Winchester Mystery House, this is the latest film from horror favorites The Spierig Brothers (Daybreakers, Jigsaw), and stars Helen Mirren as Sarah Winchester – the widow behind “the house that ghosts built.”
With Jason Clarke playing a psychologist investigating whether or not this house’s haunted history is legit or not, this movie has a pretty solid duo anchoring what could be an atmospheric horror treat.
