The Rating System

All opinions are my own. We are all different. What I may think is great, you may this terrible. Don't let my opinios stop you from exploring the vast world of horror in all media.

~Mind Blowing: Search for this movie immediately. It can only be described as pure greatness and possible an instant classic.

~So Good: Highly recommended because for one reason or another it stands out above the usual fair. Put the movie on your radar as it wont disappoint.

~In the Middle: The movie is a nothing special, average affair. It may entertain in the short term but it will be easily forgettable in the long haul.

~Warning: This movie is a cliched driven slop of familiar territory. Only watch if you're really of fan of this type of material.

~Steaming Pile: The movie is absolute garbage, a complete bore, and not worth the time or effort.

Elfie Hopkins (2013)

Starring: Jaime Winstone, Aneurin Barnard, Rupert Evans, Steven Mackinstosh, Ray Winstone
Director: Ryan Andrews

Premise:
A teenage girl investigates her neighbors after strange disappearances in the village.

My Take:
To me the movie plays like a Y/A novel with a nosy teenage girl thinking her neighbors are cannibals. And then she finds out she is right. It's not bad, but not my thing. The superb cast makes it enjoyable to watch.

Rating: In the middle
