A twisted fun little gem.

There's a meaning behind the writing, but it falls a bit flat. The mother is a real ass, and sometimes comes off as the "Monster", however there's a reconciliation...as mom is dying. The monster itself is basically a man in a rubber suit, and is a bore. Get your bowl ready, cause you're gonna need to be stoned to enjoy this.

The atmosphere of this movie is great, dark forest setting, almost faerie tailesque. The primise is good, but as the movie progressed you'll find that the directors lost the direction they should have went with it. The killer really had no back story, it was almost as if he just existed to torment the family. "My name is John, I used to live here a long time ago"...that's the bare bones of it. If you like atmospheric movies, then you'll watch all of it, but if you're looking for a movie with a good plot, or even plot twist. This isn't the one.
