Helen Mirren is a grande dame of cinema, a true acting queen who has already been nominated for four Oscars in the course of her career — and fittingly, of all things, received the golden boy for her performance as Queen Elizabeth II in «The Queen». You wouldn’t exactly expect a luminary like her in a scary horror film by «Saw 8″ makers Michael and Peter Spierig .

The two Australians have long since proven themselves to be good directors, for example with » Predestination «, which we consider to be one of the best science fiction films of all time. «Winchester» doesn’t do quite as well in a genre-internal comparison, but it’s still worth a look for fans of atmospheric horror adventures. If the film has passed you by without a trace or if you have simply never had the opportunity to remove the film from your watch list, you can catch up on what you missed tonight: «Winchester» celebrates its free TV premiere on March 12, 2022 — from 10.30 p.m. on Tele5. Alternatively, the film is currently also available as a subscription to Amazon Prime Video.

In the wake of the deaths of her husband and child, Sarah Winchester has become convinced that the tortured souls of those who died at the hands of her family’s guns are out for her.
And as Dr. Eric Price ( Jason Clarke ) visits the Winchester estate to examine his patient’s mental state, the psychiatrist soon discovers that some very strange things are indeed going on…
