One of my favourite films from last year is out now on Blu-ray and DVD and we have an exclusive look at a deleted scene from The Awakening for you today.
Nick Murphy’s film had a couple of fine lead performances from Rebecca Hall and Dominic West and along with Hammer’s recent success with The Woman in Black it showed there was nothing better than a well told traditional ghost story, this one benefitting from writer Stephen Volk’s terrific script.
The deleted scene we have here is introduced by the director, and it’s a shame it was taken out as it’s a nice addition to the side story of Imelda Staunton’s character, the effect of which is heightened once the full story has played out. Excellent to see more of the film, do check it out if you’re a horror fan.
Here’s the video,
