SYNOPSIS

Inspired by true events: tells the origins of The Winchester Mystery House. Situated on an isolated stretch of land 50 miles outside of San Francisco, it is the world’s most haunted house.

An eccentric firearm heiress believes she is haunted by the souls of people killed by the Winchester repeating rifle.

REVIEW SUMMARY

"Winchester is that odd horror movie that is more boring than frightening. There are some decent scares to be had and a few interesting elements to the plot. However, what we mostly get is a lot of nonsense in the overly plodding story and way too many (cheap) jump scares. The movie is also disappointing from a visual standpoint given the interesting and large space they had to work with. The film's highlights are definitely Mirren and Clarke’s acting in their respective roles. Lowlights include a useless subplot with a mother and her possessed son. In the end, this film disappoints in a scary way."
