The Manor (I) (2021)
5/10
The Coven
23 April 2022
The seventy-year-old Judith Albright (Barbara Hershey) is a former dancer that gives dance classes to children. When she has a stroke, she decides to leave her daughter and her beloved grandson Josh (Nicholas Alexander) to live in a nursing home and not be a burden to them. Judith shares a room with Annette (Nancy Linehan Charles) and befriends the trio Roland (Bruce Davison), Ruth (Fran Bennett) and Trish (Jill Larson) that invite her to play bridge with them. Along the night, Judith has dreadful nightmares and sees a monster attacking Annette, but nobody - including her daughter - believe her and think she has dementia. She befriends also the nurse Liesel (Ciera Payton) that says that she has also noted something supernatural happening in the Manor, but she vanishes. Now Judith decides to investigate the secret of the Manor.

"The Manor" is an average supernatural film with many veteran actors and actresses. The flawed plot is reasonable and could be better and better, but there are many clichés. My vote is five.

Title (Brazil): "A Mansão" ("The Manor")
