Review on Guillermo Del Toro presents; Mama


Being a fan of Guillermo Del Toro I was quite excited to see this film
Del Toro is to unconventional fantasy-fantastic-creepy-thriller-scifi as Quentin Tarantino is to over the top action genre films.
If you are a fan of the unconventional, pay attention because anything he's presenting should peek your interest.
Per my previous entry, Mama is based on a Spanish short.
The movie is  dark and has an unsettling eerie vibe to it.
Mama reminded me a lot of  El orfanato aka The orphanage, combining creepy children,  ghosts, an original troubling story and did i mention creepy kids.
I thoroughly enjoyed the movie; the effects were good and spooky,the story was refreshingly original and the ended ( which may upset some) was just to my liking.
A very satisfying horror film. 7/10
