Hayleigh P. This actually wasn’t as bad as I thought it was going to be. The mom wasn’t very smart about it though.. she could’ve survived if they had just done what the daughter did in the first place or at least hid out, (again, like the girl did in the closet) until daylight. That’s what I would’ve done. Okay but at the ending now what.. it’s an old road nobody takes anymore, she’s like 12, no phone or way to contact anyone, where does she plan on going.. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 07/21/25 Full Review acsdoug D The film makers throw in some domestic drama to try to add a little gravitas to what is a rather standard monster flick. It wasn't enough to push the film into "recommendation" territory though. Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 06/23/25 Full Review Moon F This movie will spark any Mother's instincts and is a very emotionally fueled movie. Regrets, Love, Fear, Strength, Bravery, Maturity, Self reliance, Terror, Life. The Monster can be taken many different ways but the way I perceived it was this; Life is full of Monsters, and its a scary world for our kids to grow up in, especially if they dont understand that there are dangers that they will have to face without us. A Mother and a Daughters bond is the strongest in the Universe in my opinion, and this movie shows a broken bond. The Monster shows A Mother reflecting on very bad choices, and also shows just how much lil girls look up their Momma's whether they do wrong or not and that is what made this movie so emotional. Zoey Kazan should have won an award for the real and convincing acting she did in this movie...they both did! Great job! WATCH IT, BUT It made me cry..so take some tissues...:) Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/17/25 Full Review Jesse H Don't know why so many dislike this movie? Just because there is no nonstop action? The horror aspect of it was great. Everyone can relate to being afraid in the woods at night. Also an unimaginable moster makes a debut so makes the guessing and scared aspect a bit better then most. One of the best non cgi movies I've seen. The music is also matched perfectly with this flick. Music has a huge impact, if you don't believe me check out some of your favorites I'm sure you will get the jest of it. Now on to the family dynamics....... WOW. The anxiety lvl brought up between the mother and daughters relationship is emmi worthy and makes the horror aspect better. One of mi favorite not only horror movie but favorite movie in general. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/27/25 Full Review Smackie u Honestly what a yawn fest. Struggled to stay awake through it. Rated 1.5/5 Stars •  Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 03/01/25 Full Review Audience Member This monster drama horror is okay, very slow paced, kind of relatable especially if you live that kind of life and trying being a single parent. The movie does good job giving a interested enough story for the characters and making feel their mother and daughter relationship. The dark woods they get stick in and rain for the night is pretty eerie and scary and creepy enough that you easliy get intrigued and into it quick. Yes, is a little slow to get started with the backstory with relationship of mother and daughter but if u pay attention it does get really good and ending is okay and acting is not bad. All in all a B+👍👍 Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 06/22/24 Full Review Read all reviews
