"Most people say witches aren't real. They're fairy tales. Then one day they show up at your door and eat your kids. That's where we come in. We kill witches." Hansel
This film was ultimately disappointing. They wasted a pretty neat concept on one decent plot twist (that comes into play far too late in the film to earn any redemption points) and throwing blood and dirt at the camera about 80% of the time. The character designs and concepts were properly intriguing, and the opening five minutes of the film was just short of genius. And that's where the praise stops. Now I know that I have a personal vendetta out for 3-D, but I find it entirely justified when the effect is used purely to hurl items at my face. I could barely keep my eyes open to see what was happening on screen. However, I guess if you know that your plot is poor and predictable, maybe it's a good idea to keep your audience from being able to look at the screen for more than five minutes at a time.
