In the early 1900s, Miranda attends a girls boarding school in Australia. One Valentine's Day, the school's typically strict headmistress treats the girls to a picnic field trip to an unusual but scenic volcanic formation called Hanging Rock. Despite rules against it, Miranda and several other girls venture off. It's not until the end of the day that the faculty realizes the girls and one of the teachers have disappeared mysteriously.
Staying on point with our October Halloween theme, here are five classics with strong costume designs, and plenty of suspense. A list talent from North and South America, Australia and the United Kingdom all present distinct visual styles, spanning as as many eras as they do territories. Some shed more blood than others, but all were recognized for their direction and storylines, receiving critical acclaim.
