What's up with these Spanish films with a religious setting, moody anamorphic dark scenes in a haunted convent / nursery, dead children and ultra slow tracking shots? The one distinctive element in The Beckoning is the usage of the authentic historic newsreels (sort of like the Dutch "Polygoon journaal"), for the rest it delivers the obvious series of events and conclusion.
