A beautifully set horror tale that stands out among genre garbage

Rating: 9/10 (20 March 2016)

This piece is close to art form when it comes to the genre of fantasy horror; the casting is perfect and the parlance accurately immersive, while the setting and the atmosphere are well crafted by light and sound. There's the lonely picture of a small colonial family holding on to their meager patch of turf and the all-consuming gospel of an indifferent ancient god, as they face a wild web of trees and shadows in the preying woods at their doorstep – while a wolf is blamed as the lurking danger and cause of sorrow, it's the very Christian witch hunt and devil-chasing within the settlers that will yield self-fulfilling rituals of rapture and sacrifice.
