Some parents commit monstrous acts and some monsters can be nurturing. In this 2013 horror movie, we watch a dark spirit care for two young girls after they end up on their own. The girls are eventually reunited with family but the spirit cannot handle her “children” being stolen from her. We discuss why the atmosphere of this film works, how great the young actors do and some deeper meanings we found in the film. Happy Mother’s Day!
