This was a good movie. I really enjoyed this one.
This is a horror movie about a guy who kills his wife and takes his 2 kids away... but when his car crashes, he gets lost in the woods until he finds a cabin. He takes his children inside, but there is spirit in there protecting the children. The spirit then follows the children into the city when they go and live with their uncle.
It is not very scary... there were a couple of attempts of jump scares, but not too many... and none of them made me jump anyway.
The story was very good and there were quite a few emotions throughout the film. At some points of the film I felt so sorry for the children, but then something would happen and the next minute I would think the kids are evil. All the way through you don't really know whether the kids are good or not.
There was one scene in the film that was really horrible. There was a woman who had a dream and this dream was horrible. There is a baby in the dream and I felt so bad for this baby. It looked so scared.
The effects were not brilliant at times, but that didn't ruin the movie. The story and the acting carried it through well.
The actors were all really good... especially the children. Normally I find child actors very annoying and too young to have much talent. But not in this case. Both kids did a great job. The stars are Jessica Chastain, Nikolaj Coaster-Waldau, Megan Charpentier & Isabelle Nelisse.
I will give this film 8 out of 10.
I really liked it. Great story, mixed emotions about the characters and great acting. A horror film that is definitely worth watching.
