RAVE - Wake Wood

A simple premise - "I can bring your daughter back from the dead, for three days, so that you can say a proper goodbye to her".

Based in Ireland, Aidan Gillen and Eva Birthistle hold a spooky ritual with village elder, Timothy Spall, who promises to bring back their daughter Louise, who died from a savage dog attack a little under a year earlier.

It's a toned down horror movie, but because it was made in Europe, it works.

Not as bloody as some more popular movies, not as loud, no explosions. Nevertheless, it was spooky, schlocky, and weird. And worth seeing.
