Another installment in the Kennent Branagh reboots of Agatha Christie. After the disastrous Death on the Nile, I almost didn't bother. It turned out to be a solid movie for halloween. It was atmospheric. In the tradition of the classic Aggie movies, it was a travelogue to some exotic local. Instead of sunny beaches or other idyllic settings, it was a rundown manor of lost grandeur. Nothing about the acting or plot really stands out, other than it is spook enough and doesn't offend.
