Lady in White

LADY IN WHITE tells a classic ghost story in such an everyday way that the ghost is almost believable, and the story is actually scarier than it might have been with a more gruesome approach.... An insidious atmosphere.

The film begins on Halloween in 1962 when a young boy (a prepubescent Lukas Haas) catches sight of the ghost of a murdered girl and soon finds himself being stalked by the girl's killer while being instinctively pulled toward the home of the mysterious 'Lady in White.' What follows is a potent mix of supernatural horror, Spielbergian nostalgia, some smuggled-in progressive polemics and a shocking children-in-peril suspense that only a legitimate "child-murdering" antagonist can provide.
