7/10
Subtle, yet interesting!
14 August 2013
"The Hearse", is a horror movie isn't quite taken lightly, but it has an interesting storyline to it. Here you got a woman (Trish Van Devere) who going through a divorce, gets a house in the country whose late aunt used to live. However, when she got there, the people in town give her a cold reception. When they find out who her aunt was, they act very hostile towards her. Only the son of the hardware store owner and the preacher of a local church has been kind to her. The reason for the hostility is obvious, the aunt who lived in the house practiced witchcraft. All because of the man she met years earlier before her death. What's worse is a strange, black hearse that roams the highway at night. And the woman nearly loses it when it comes st her. They said that the hearse crashed off the bridge, and exploded before hitting the bottom. She meets a third kind person in town. But he has a big secret of his own. The house was apparently haunted by the ghost of her aunt, and the highway by the hearse. She was the verge of a serious breakdown. With an relative with a dark secret, you would not honor them for their dark deeds. You cut them out of your life, forever! This could have used more detail to it, but it was mildly interesting. 2 out of 5 stars.
