She Fears Its Curse.

Arthur Kipps is an English solicitor in his thirties who was recently widowed and lives in London at the start of the twentieth century. He receives an ultimatum: if he fails to sell Eel Marsh House, he will lose his job. Under that pressure, he sets out on a journey to a small village where no one welcomes him warmly. The villagers want him to leave as soon as possible, and he soon realizes the task he has been given will not be simple. Directed by James Watkins, the film puts Daniel Radcliffe in the lead role of an assignment that becomes complicated from the very first days.
