What a freaking movie. So many twists and turns. Absolutely intense from start to finish.
a film so unique, intoxicating and bizarre that it not only demands another viewing, but is also forgivable as a satirical comedy where the jokes eventually take the back seat.
Unshakable, witty and deeply felt, the film will be paying emotional dividends for a long, long time.
Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.
Really enjoyed this movie, saw it at the International Film Festival in New Zealand. Having grown up in Austria, I knew the first fairytale about "Die Trud" and the Bavarian one was also very familiar. The 8 tales moved around the world and were very different, but all beautifully shot. The last, Hungarian one, played like an old silent movie was a bit more farcical but the others held genuine horror and dread.
Cute concept (world folklore anthology); well executed.This was much more subtle than a lot of mainstream horror which I think will subvert some watchers expectations, either positively or negatively.I found the opening short examining the socio-religious stigmas surrounding homosexuality to be artful and insightful with a positive empowering message that wasn't crass or overstated.At least one short examined elder care through the lens of witchcraft. The last short was a delightful dark comedy--Grimm meets Aesop.It was cool to see something new in horror under the guise of being old.
I heard a lot about this from friends, but after seeing it very dissapointed. The whole thing was pretty bad.
Good movie south by southwest, interesting concenpt bringing shorts together. Worked really well
