Oh holy smokes, this one is FRIGHTENING. Let's talk about:
My oh my, movies about grief are just some of the scariest for me. I have a lump in my throat as I'm screaming with these....
Here we have the heart crushing story about a young boy and his step mother, as they process life after the boy's father and her new husband dies suddenly in a tragic accident.
The child is now an orphan, and she never wanted kids. But here we are, with a creature lurking in the woods and crawling around their home, trying to lure the child into the woods.
And this is a scary creature!!
And let's just talk about the title of this film for a second. It's horrifying! Who comes up with a title like this [crying in fear]?
The nightmare of grief is already terrifying but adding an actual monster - ugggggggggg!
My heart ached for this kid. I kept thinking of my husband, who is now deceased, what life was like at that age when he became an orphan himself. And then I kept remembering what it was like when I took my husband off life support.... he would have been 49 in a few days.
The heart ache. The pain. Sometimes it creates A Monster.
This was a little bit difficult for me to watch, just for personal reasons, but it's a stellar, stellar horror film for anyone!
This slow burn is best watched alone. Pairs with wine and food that should sound good but you're just not hungry.
I watched this film on Shudder or use the Find It! Watch It! links on Horror Habit's side bar to see where else you can find this absolute frightening feature.
