Full Circle - 1977 - 6/10
AKA - The Haunting Of Julia

Ten years after Rosemary, Mia Farrow reprises another haunted mother.
After her daughter dies, she separates from her husband, moves into a large, fully furnished flat that may or may not be haunted, and starts “seeing” her daughter.
Based on the Peter Staub book, before he struck gold with “Ghost Story.”
In the movie, you don’t know why she separates from her husband, though in the book he is clearly overbearing, and perhaps more interested in her trust fund than her.
Implausible common Horror violations include:

  1. When the door is locked, then audibly unlocks - you DO NOT go inside.
  2. Never EVER descend into the basement when you are alone in an empty house.
    Farrow fine as grieving mother, everyone else appears bored.
