Terrible terrible terrible! This might be the worst movie I've ever seen. It isn't scary AT ALL. The central metaphor is clumsy and soooo obvious! It's like this was written by a tenth-grader. The kid is utterly disgusting. I've never seen a more despicable character in a movie. The movie might have been saved if the intolerable little shit had been painfully butchered at the end, but director Kent doesn't have that kind of courage...or the slightest f**king clue! Beware of misleading reviews: this was wildly overpraised by critics who don't have the first f**king clue about horror cinema. A message to the director Jennifer Kent if she's reading this: f**k YOU! Your movie is a stain on our collective species. You should be deeply ashamed!

The most overpraised horror film of the century. Not scary at all. Noah Wiseman's character was totally repugnant. The filmmaker made that kid WAY too obnoxious and by doing so, completely lost control of her film.
This is a monster movie, alright. The kid was the monster. One of the most frustrating films ever made.
