Rest In Peace

About This Movie

Rest In Peace (1991) is a curious blend of crime and ghostly intrigue, centered around the Dibble sisters. Mabel’s posthumous presence looms large over Batavia, creating an atmosphere thick with tension and moral dilemma. The film's pacing is deliberate, almost reminiscent of silent films, which is a nod to that era. The performances are layered; Batavia’s desperation contrasts sharply with Mabel’s ethereal haunting. The practical effects used to manifest Mabel's ghost are surprisingly effective, evoking an eerie nostalgia. There’s something distinctively quirky about the way it plays with themes of greed and family ties, making it a unique watch for those who appreciate the offbeat corners of cinema.
