4/4 

An atmospheric and thoroughly creepy horror film that creates a unique gothic universe that plays with threads of the Jack the Ripper legend. Ian Holm is especially good as an unhinged potential suspect and the film is at its scariest when the Rippers identity is unknown. The widespread feeling of paranoia is well-done.

"From Hell," based on one of the most recognized graphic novels of all time, as well as some of the most infamous criminals who ever existed. Someone as terrifying as Jack the Ripper and characters so flawed who were trying to find him...this was all brilliantly crafted by the Hughes brothers. A great piece of direction, writing, and acting. Johnny Depp, Ian Holm, Heather Graham, and Robbie Coltrane were all just terrific.

"From Hell" by Yojimbo

Based on a graphic novel, this pseudo-gothic serial killer movie based on the case of Jack The Ripper would probably have been ignored if it weren't for Johnny Depp's presence in the lead role. "Whitechapel" is populated by "corlummeluvvaduck" cockernee extras wandering dark cobbled streets in a way that reminded me of The Comic Strip Presents...Strike!, a fact not helped by Robbie Coltrane's appearance as Depp's literary cliche-spouting sergeant. But the biggest problem is that it's all so half-baked...all of the characters are superficially realized cliches and the mysticism angle that seemed so interesting, particularly Depp's drug-fuelled "visions", is completely irrelevant. The plot will probably be interesting to those not familiar with the whole Ripper conspiracy theory, but anyone...
