Gretel & Hansel [Blu-ray] [Standard]

I picked this up during the Black Friday sale - and, I must say, what a pleasant surprise! A family feature: this is not - unless the kids are securely in their teens. There were some seriously dark themes to the backstory and parts of the movie are downright creepy! Just as the Grimm's Brothers intended it to be. The characters were all well acted and the production quality was solid. Definitely worth the watch!

This is a very creepy dark movie but it's very good

A sweet tale of Gothic horror, that got a theatrical release! Which is sorely lacking from the movie studios for a long time now. Oz Perkins, conjurs a wonderful, gorey tale on the classic and over done grim fairy tale. Check out his Black coats daughter if you enjoy this.

This is a great movie and, after seeing in the theater, I was really surprised by the initial tepid reviews it got. I still feel like this will gain at least a cult following and wider appreciation within the next few years. It's gorgeously shot and directed, with imagery that reminded me of stylized European horror films from the 70's and Alejandro Jodorowsky. My summation of the movie is that it feels like an A24 film for young adults. To me, that's very cool and unique. I think I read the director would have liked to make more fairy tale types of films in this style, and I wish and hope he might get the chance.

A nice slow burn of a horror movie. If you expect a fast pace and tons of jump scares. Than you will hate this. Cause this is not that film. If you love stuff like The Witch or The Lighthouse. This film is for you.
