This doesn't seem too promising a premise with its four leading men all of pensionable age swapping ghost stories in their exclusive Chowder Club. It is however a very absorbing and atmospheric film with a mesmerising performance from its leading lady. Craig Wasson plays Don who returns to the small town where his father is Mayor for rhe funeral of his brother who died in mysterious circumstances. When his father dies shortly afterwards, Don joins the Club to tell the three surviving members of his own supernatural experience which forces them to confront their murky past.
Alice Krige ( as Eva/Alma)
Sex : Eva went to bed with Don's father but he couldn't get it up. Alma sleeps with both of his sons.
Death : Eva drowns in a lake when she is mistaken for dead and dumped there in a car. Alma is her ghost.
Alice was born and brought up in South Africa but moved to England for more acting opportunities. This was her second film role after Chariots of Fire. While not making her a huge star, she has never been out of work since and gained a new audience through her role as The Borg Queen in Star Trek : First Contact. Her career is ongoing.
