A truly great horror. Beautifully done.

Rating: 9/10 (27 April 2013)

This movie showcases the genius of this Director. The story grips you from the first scenes, the characters make you fall in love with them from the opening scenes also. I was pulled in to this world that is frightening, intriguing, and confronting. The little girls in the first scenes had me emotionally engaged, I had to know what happened to them. As for the plot, WOW. You couldn't help but feel for the characters, I had never been so in to the characters of a movie like this in years. Even the so called "bad" people, the way that Andrés Muschietti melds the story to each of them had me invested in them and their plight. I couldn't help but want to see this movie again. Its one that I look forward to watching more than once. If you haven't seen this film, I suggest you do. Great story telling, great filming. I highly recommend it. 9 out of 10.
