Every murderer is someone's old friend

Long ago lost his faith, the retired rational thinking detective Poirot is invited into a séance. It takes place in Venice where, as the saying goes, every house is haunted. Or cursed. Soon the detective is wrapped in a case of a dead young girl, believed drowned. And fresh corpses make another mystery. Yet again another of one Sir Kenneth Branagh's Agatha Christie adaptations and even if it's nothing overly spectacular, it's a fun ride.
