As Scary as Disney Would Dare to be
25 November 2019
The Watcher in the Woods is a scary movie... or as scary as Disney would dare to be.

Shortly after a family moves into a mansion in the woods of England, the two girls begin experiencing strange occurrences. There is definitely something paranormal going on surrounding the disappearance of Karen Aylwood some 30 years prior.

The performances weren't anything special, especially that of Lynn-Holly Johnson playing Jan. I was never convinced of her being frightened, worried, upset, or any other emotion. She just raised her voice and looked wild-eyed when there was something of importance happening.

The conclusion of the movie did do something to save it. It didn't make it good, but it saved it from being bad.
