User Reviews
GialloGoblin – 7/10
“A slow-burn gem from Hammer that really got under my skin. The atmosphere is thick with dread, and Angharad Rees as the daughter is hauntingly beautiful and tragic. It's not perfect, but the psychological depth and creepy finale make it worth a watch.”
MrsVesper – 5/10
“I wanted to love this more than I did. The premise is great, but the pacing drags in the middle, and some of the acting feels dated. Still, the idea of Jack the Ripper's daughter being possessed by his evil is a chilling one, and a few scenes really deliver.”
SlasherSteve – 6/10
“Solid Hammer horror with a twist. The gore is minimal but effective, and the story keeps you guessing. I thought the psychiatrist character was a bit dull, but the female lead is fantastic. A decent way to spend an evening if you like classic horror.”
CinemaCrypt – 8/10
“This one surprised me with its psychological depth. It's not just a slasher; it's a study of trauma and inherited evil. The Victorian setting is beautifully realized, and the final act is genuinely disturbing. Highly recommended for fans of atmospheric horror.”
