Great scare!

Rating: 9/10 (19 January 2013)

If you are a fan of Hitchcock and not a gore freak you will love this movie..the suspense is what makes it great, only seeing peeks of Mama throughout the film until the end. The actresses playing the little girls are absolutely fantastic and, as always Jessica Chastain delivers a spot on performance. There are few missteps in the plot line but the suspense continues to build throughout. It is filmed with just enough creepiness to keep you enthralled. I was in a theater that had NO empty seats and the collective GASP during certain scenes showed just how much we were all enthralled and into the movie. Can't wait to see it again to watch and catch some of the nuances I'm sure I missed during the "hide-your-eyes" parts. There is NO gore in this movie, just a few "icky" parts, it is pure suspense.
