Mama is not someone I would want to raise my children...

Rating: 10/10 (19 January 2013)

Mama is a horrible creature that was created from a person who wanted to raise a child in life, and that desire carried through to the afterlife as well. Throughout the movie, there are plenty jump out scares, but even more noticeable is the overall eeriness of the entire movie that will send chills down your spine even at the most unexpected moments.
The entire plot leads to an unexpected climax (well... it's not that unexpected if your a fan of Guillermo del Toro's movies...) that will leave you feeling dread as you leave the theater. Also, the movie has some breathtaking visuals that are truly stunning to look at, though they are also horrific to look at as well. The storyline does have something that are uneven, such as questions that will go unanswered, but as Guillermo says: "The best type of horror is unknown!"
This is a movie that will chill you to the bone, and leave you feeling sad, and somewhat confused, but it is one of the better horror movies of our age, and it deserves to get some recognition! I would recommend this movie to anyone who loves horror with a passion and wants to see a Guillermo del Toro-style horror movie that is almost a fantasy.
