Not too bad.. A bit of a weird take on tooth fairies but I liked it.

Excellent scares! Wonderful monster film with good mood setting and a dynamite lead performance from Bailee Madison. You really fear for this kid and the little creatures, while I wasn't a fan of the CGI, were creepy enough...particularly when they were only voices lilting in from the heat register.

Absolutely terrible movie. Generic, nonsensical plot and awful characters. The "creatures" are really uncreative, and it really wasn't scary at all. It felt very cheap overall too, like watching one of the old gremlin movies. Also, the movie really falls apart towards the end with the last 25-30 minutes becoming especially hard to pull through. It all comes down in one of the worst endings I have ever seen in a horror movie. Don't watch this.

I zoned out basically ten minutes in. You can’t make me scared for a character without making me care about them a little tiny bit and I never gave a shit whether any of them lived or died.

Oh, this is the stuff. How I’ve missed great horror. American studios have, by and large, ignored producing truly great horror over mindless pablum like Final Destination 6, or Saw 23, or Nostalgic Horror Film Remake 117. Slashers, gore-fests, dead teenager movies and all the other imagination-bar More

This remake of the 1973 cheesy, but effective made-for-TV movie is a bummer overall. I wanted to like this because Guillermo del Toro produced it. He keeps working on projects that interest me. Everything he has a hand in looks great, but none of his movies have ever really blown me away. "Don't More
