Bill Nighy investigates period serial slasher, the Limehouse Golem, so
called because he, er, why is he called that, and the the suspected
poisoning of a failed playwright by his actress wife. Suspects are
ripped from the pages of history (spoiler: Karl Marx didn't do it) and
the ever popular Ratcliffe Highway murders are heavily referenced.
Nowhere near as clever as it thinks it is (twist so obvious my normally-bemused missus called it after ten minutes) but interesting
enough examination of Victorian music halls and Douglas Booth steals
the show as real-life star Dan Leno.
Got bafflingly good reviews. Zounds like the book might be worth a
read.
Good, that's another one I can take off the list. I can feel the
pressure lifting.

Why don't you give us your list and we (ie. me) will tell you which
to cross off.

It was alright. Decent performances from Nighy, Cooke, Booth and the bad
guy from ASHES TO ASHES and it is a good looking period film but I never
felt caught up in the film.
The twist was so obvious that I dismissed it.

I thought I saw this more recently, but it was actually 2016, so I
have a review of it.
"An anthology of horror tales - each by a different director and each
about a different annual holiday/celebration. Starting with
Valentine's Day and ending with New Year's Eve. Considering the names involved, I expected more. Some of them start really well (the best
example being the blasphemously disturbing, "Easter"), but then end
abruptly just as things seem to be getting going. Overall, very disappointing."

Yeah, the cast was good. Also Eddie Marsan.
The twist was so obvious that I dismissed it.
And the ending post-twist was ridiculous.

I really enjoyed watching AUTOPSY. The ending is a bit of a let down just because it is a bit too obvious but getting there is a fun ride. Brian
Cox and Emile Hirsch put in good performances as the father and son
mortician team looking into the mysterious death of a woman.
