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.

Marianne (2013)

Starring: Peter Stormare, Thomas Hedengran, Sandra Larson
Director: Flip Tegstedt

Premise:
A man is left to raise his newborn daughter and teenage daughter after his wife dies in a car accidents. He starts having dreams which may be a curse brought on by his past secrets.

My Take:
I enjoy movies about lore from countries different than mine. This has to do with the Swedish Mare, which is an evil spirit which sucks the life out of people while sleeping. The movie lets you decide if there is a monster or if the problems are caused by the man's guilt. Everything clicked for me in the movie.

Rating: So Good
