Down A Dark Hall (2018)

A rebellious teenage girl is sent to a girls boarding school by her family as a last resort to straighten her out. But the new school seems to mysteriously uncover unexpected talents in its students.

A horror movie made for those who don't enjoy horror movies very much. It has a somewhat original idea but it's not really executed to its full potential. It has a few interesting characters (Uma Thurman is adorable as the strict and very French Madame Duret) with more or less suitable fates and a bit of excess in negativity. I could easily imagine the same plot in a much more optimistic context where everyone collaborates willingly in a disciplined manner.
Isabelle Fuhrman has an interesting appearance as one of the affected students. She is the girl from Orphan, now a teenager.

Directed by: Rodrigo Cortés
With: AnnaSophia Robb, Uma Thurman, Isabelle Fuhrman, Rosie Day, Pip Torrens
