“There Wolves. There Castle.”
Overall this film is pretty good; I wouldn’t say it rivals “American Werewolf in London”, or even “Dog Soldiers”, but it’s a fun fantasy horror flick. Though the film is only an hour and a half long, it does tend to drag in a few places, but overall it’s worth your time. Great practical effects, atmospheric production design, and inventive storytelling make this film enjoyable, particularly for fans for gothic fantasy and horror.
I much prefer the company of American ones in London.
Once upon a time, there was a up and coming director by the name of Neil who, for his sophomore movie, decided to create a dark fairytale based on a modern reworking of the classic tale of Little Red Riding Hood.He packed his film with Freudian symbolism—visual metaphors relating to it’s central character’s coming of age and inevitable loss of innocence—and filled it with wondrous, atmospheric imagery, effectively creating a disturbing and ethereal fairytale aesthetic. But as beautiful as his film was to look at, at it’s heart it was still a load of pretentious and rather dull Gothic art-house twaddle.
The narrative—a confusing dream-within-a-dream with interwoven stories recounted by various characters—quickly devolved into a surreal and plodding mess of trite, allegorical, feminist drivel that depicted men as beasts driven by uncontrollable lust. As for the much-touted transformation effects, they were less than special—mediocre animatronic efforts that paled in comparison to those other great werewolf films of the ’80s (you know the ones I mean… they were fun, entertaining and made sense).
