While Trebilcock uses creepily animated sequences to artful effect, the film peaks too weakly.

One of the rare horror movies that would probably work better if the horror elements were extracted, leaving just the underlying family drama to speak for itself.

In the end, the animated sequences and the actors prove to be the film's biggest charms, and just enough to make it all worthwhile.
