I thought it was a decent B-Movie with an interesting take on an old fairytale. The female lead, and the boy have an emotional story to them, and you really root for them. Which is nice to do in a horror.
Although the emotional pain of the female lead is quite intense, and might be triggering for some as the subject is child abuse. I think it's an important story to tell, and it makes her very real. I actually really loved the ending as well even though I saw it coming a little.
It wasn't really tense, or scary though, but I did like the creature design. The special effects weren't the best, but I found it easy to look through that with the story. The male lead was meh, and just felt like a tag on though. I felt he could have been developed more.
I thought overall it was worth a watch.
