Morella (1999)
good music, nice scenery, chars could be better
Morella is definitely not one of the big movies but never the less it is worth watching. Though the characterplay lacks some depth Morella captivates with the mood, scenery, the pictures however you might call it. The style reminds me a litle bit of the games "Silent Hill" or "Another Day in the Dark". Although the film plays in the early 21st century, it looks more like 1920-30 with a litle bit of 1990 laboratories-in-sf-films design and a few gimmicks, which come from the 21st century - a really nice and intriguing mix! The story is interesting and spooky though I don't know the original by E.A.Poe so that I can not say wether the film lives up to the story... Morella is definitely not a film for everyone. Lots will not like it and say it is boring because M is no popcorn-film and not for the great audience. But I enjoyed it...
