About this deal

Long, boring, unconvincing, and with a vague 'historicalness' that is miles away from the likes of Sarah Dunant or Eleanor Catton. PFOA and similar compounds are forever chemicals, chemicals that do not leave the blood stream and slowly accumulate.

In January 2019, Anne Hathaway, Tim Robbins, Bill Camp, Victor Garber, Mare Winningham, William Jackson Harper, and Bill Pullman joined the cast of the film, with Christine Vachon and Pamela Koffler producing under their Killer Films banner. I think the reason that so many people are so hard on it is because they went in expecting to see THE RING or THE GRUDGE. Audiences polled by CinemaScore gave the film an average grade of "A−" on an A+ to F scale, while those at PostTrak gave it an average 3. I am not sure if that was the author's intention to perhaps make fun of typical mystery tropes and clichés, but it didn't come across like that to me and instead felt like lazy writing. My favourite word in the story was ‘daemonologica’ ( a taxonomy of devils), a book I’d love to have though I very much doubt one exists!Having Sara remind herself and be reminded by others, such as her maid, that she is a 'noble-woman' seemed odd. An enjoyable and atmospheric historical fiction mystery, which the author himself describes as more fiction than historical. Throughout the journey, the ship is haunted by what seems to be a devil and it’s up to Arent to solve the mystery. DuPont attorney Phil Donnelly tells him he is not aware of the case but will help out in any way he can. I have to admit: I enjoyed “7 Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle” even it burned each grey cells of mine and for one month I could only watch “Kardashians” and “Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” because these were the only shows can be watched if you feel like lackwit with a brain cannot function properly.

Yet, with the sleuth being locked up in a tiny, gloomy cell, it passes on to Arent, who has picked up some of Pipps' talents himself over the years, and some companions he meets on board the ship, to investigate.He’s got a degree in English and Philosophy, which makes him excellent at arguing and terrible at choosing degrees. Due to this status, he is locked in a grimy, claustrophobic cell, without even enough room to stand up. The author’s writing is so expressive and stirring from the very start there’s no escaping the reader being transported to the port at Batavia, where the sights, sounds and smells encourage you to feel you’re actually standing watching the opening chapters, with a leper appearing to pronounce the devil.

This enabled any questions you may have had to be completely answered and with an opening for a possible second in the series, I’m hoping there’ll be more from Sammy, Arent and company.A Blu-ray Disc was released on October 17, 2006, but it only contains the widescreen PG-13 theatrical version and fewer extras than the DVD releases. The self-absorbed Carver is surrounded by his mirror-images - he seems to see his own story repeated by others unfolding all around him, or perhaps he is simply incapable of seeing anything but himself. The characters were all superbly portrayed and in my mind I couldn’t decide if Samuel Pipps was a vision of Benedict Cumberbatch as a Sherlock Holmes persona or Johnny Depp as Captain Jack Sparrow - maybe both, so even better! And the leper’s premonition comes true, already three deaths are marked by the devil and it seems like he has no intention to stop.
