The Nanny meets The Jungle book at Hammer horror studios
Odd headline I admit but you will understand why when you view this film. Having agreed to become tutor for 2 children in a out of the way country house a young woman new to the job finds she has a young boy and girl to look after who behave in a wild untamed way with a house keeper who seems unconcerned by their wild child antics Trying to educate them the tutor finds out is not going to be easy Her concerns are further increased when a man keeps appearing taking a close viewing interest of the children mostly the boy But when she describes the man it all turns to denial with the claim the man she saw is the gardener who was supposed to have died 2 years ago Turns out this alleged ghost plays a part in the tutors future with serious consequences Well worth watching as its another deep plot film by the master film maker Ivan Noel

Well worth buying a coy
This film needs to be seen more than once I reckon. There are subtle points that can be missed at first viewing however, a fantastic film I thought. Yes there are moments of cold nudity but it's very relevant to the story and isn't in any way gratuitous.Excellent film

Original foreign language film -variation on Horror drama!
An good,original film with excellent acting from the children in particular! An dark,errie story,not always clear what it is about always! Some very brief child nudity,but discrete,and appropriate to the story. Well worth watching! Different from any British/American drama.

As One Would Expect From This Director...
A strange and disturbing tale about strange and disturbed people! But Ivan Noel was certainly a very talented and original film maker (and musician) - it's just a shame that he wasted his talent on such dark and depressing subject matter. But I would say that his unique and uncompromising films are worth the time and money, this one included - as long as you're not offended by child nudity (not that much though).What a great shame (and loss) that he chose to end his life rather than fight unproven accusations of abuse.

dark and brilliant films with convincing performances
Another of unique film maker Ivan Noel's unsettling, haunting, dark and brilliant films with convincing performances , especially the child actors playing the feral kids. I think Henry James would have approved of this latest version of his classic chiller Turn of the screw.

An original twist to The turn of the screw.
Ivan Noel is so good at getting the best performance from an unknown young cast. This is so well acted. This is another interpretation of The turn of the screw, but with a unique slant to it.
