This was a twisted fairy tale about a familiar story that had a unique touch and an eerie feeling to it. The movie often works with bright colors and shines in different shades, that progressively turned darker throughout the movie, adjusting to its tone. The acting is solid and the movie in general looks pretty good and the premise, while being familiar definitely has its unique twist. The movie manages to portray this magical fairytale feeling of the house and the surrounding woods and is able to draw you in to its narrative.
I did not anticipate the movie to turn that dark and raw, however there are only few legit horror aspects and the film concentrates on the drama fantasy-genre, which I thought was some wasted potential. Two other minor complaints where that the movie was too long and the pacing was really slow at times making it hard to concentrate on the plot. However it was a unique experience and definitely worth a watch. [5,7/10]
