Best Gothic Films
#9
The Innocents (1961) starring Deborah Kerr as the governess. It has probably been mentioned in this forum before. In my opinion, this is one case of the film adaptation being better than the book (The Turn of the Screw). Sorry, Henry James fans.

The Innocents also has the best ghosts (in my opinion) of any film. They look like old daguerrotypes, and almost flicker. Creepier than any CGI effect I've seen.
