Reviews

Colibel Terrible acting, screenplay and direction.
StyleSk8r At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.
Philippa All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.
Jenni Devyn Worth seeing just to witness how winsome it is.
