Night Orchid (1997)
Gothic Thriller; Surprisingly good Acting & great Plot
I found this video (believe it or not) in an old delapidated & spooky old shack in the woods on my island in the Gulf of Alaska. The old man who had lived there had long since departed so I didn't feel bad about borrowing some VHS tapes that lay scattered on the floor....among them "NIGHT ORCHID". I found the description intriguing as I am into hauntings & new actors/first films, etc. I took the tape to my cliff-side log cabin & sat down to see if I had made a good choice or not. Turns out I DID. I was amazed by the first time acting to say nothing about a first film for a writer/director. I was drawn into the movie plot almost immediately & the surprising end was even more interesting.
Thanks to Mr. Atkins and his fine crew of actors/actresses, I was awarded with a great nite of film viewing and since I'm back again at my island cabin for yet another summer, it's time to view it once again. I'm positive that I will enjoy it as much the second time as I did the first time. Great films never die.
