Viewing Notes
An early frontrunner for best of the fest, I was really anticipating this movie since it screened at Fantastic Fest last year as the secret screening. Just the description made it sound like it would be right up my alley and lo and behold, I wasn’t mistaken! I loved this movie!
The “surprise” actually surprised me, which added to the effectiveness as well. One of many movies of the Stanley Film Fest this year to feature children.
