Eight year old Peter begins having terrible dreams, nightmares caused by a voice behind his bedroom wall, and the strange behaviour of his cruel and abusive parents Carol and Mark. Peter has only one source of help, his teacher, Miss Devine.
Once again, I was hooked by a trailer, but unlike the last few horrors I've seen, which have all been disappointing, Cobweb was actually a pretty good movie.
Let's be honest, it's far from perfect, but then again, what is, at times it was a little too dark, and I wish they hadn't shown the figure, I would have preferred the ambiguity. I didn't care for some of The CGI, had they toned her down a bit, I think it would have worked better.
The ending felt a bit rushed, I wonder if they'd cut a number of scenes out, that said it was nice to watch a movie that didn't run for three hours.
The plus points, quite a few of them, first of all, pound for pound, this had more jump scares than I've seen for quite a while, and when they came, they were really good, the moment with the mother coming down the corridor was excellent, plenty of tension and unease.
I thought the acting was terrific, Lizzy Caplan, Antony Starr and young Woody Norman were all on point.
Better than expected, I enjoyed it.
7/10.
