Giving this an 7/10 rating
A house, deep in he woods, holds three people, cut off from he world. The world is stark and danger is everywhere. This film is a very beautiful and ugly, when it has to be. This film really is a dark fable/fairy tale. It works, just!
Halle Berry is the driving force as a externe mother figure. All eyes are firmly on her. Among the super visuals and slight sound design, is a good but not too terrifying enough picture. Which suffers from lack of being more than it could of been. Thanks to Alexandre Aja, the film is very slow and enjoyable, when stuff happens, it happens.
You get the feeling of something in the world is near quite right, and that helps, Just needed a bit more death. A twisted ancient tale or a misguided family, you go see it. I guess it's 50-50 if you like the feel of it. This is Berry's film.
