Review of The Haunted

The Haunted (2018)
3/10
Well here is the plot Explained
2 November 2021
Warning: Spoilers
The main character is a ghost who was kept confined in the basement by her father where she eventually died.

Her makeup makes her look almost like she is a ghost throughout the movie because she is actually is a ghost. While she's tours the home she sees another girl whom she thinks is the ghosts as the main character still think she's alive but the ghost she is seeing is the actual caretaker who is alive and trying to exercise the house.

Throughout the movie the main character interacts with what she thinks is the "ghost girl" who is following her throughout the house. The ghost girl however is following her because she is the real caretaker trying to exercise the main character who is actually a ghost.

At the end of the movie we see the main character finally exercised and the care take tells her she will let everyone know what her father did to her. Then we see the main character run out the house where she finds her also deceased mother waiting for her.

It's a low budget film and it shows. There's lot of plot holes and explanations that could have been done better with a bigger budget. What isn't made clear is if her father was a live or a ghost himself.

It's also not clear if the main character possessed the young caretaker while she was trying to exercise her spirit and may have been able to interact with Arthur in the physical world...enough to knock him down the stairs and escape after she discovered his daughters body in the basement.

This movie just overall isn't clear and isn't told very well and it deserves its low rating. I don't fault the actors they did their job well enough for this movie... I fault the writer of this film. They need to go back to film school and learn how to create a proper story that the audience can understand.
