This film will keep you mesmerized as the proverbial cats and mice play their games of murderous 'hide and seek'. There's a lot to like about this quirky, very dark movie that will keep you on the edge of your seat. There's not a lot of background music to alert you when to expect some event, some frightful occurrence, and this adds to the stark realism of the film. And, just as there's a lot to keep you on the edge of your seat, there's also a few holes left unplugged, a few bumps along the way to leave you disquieted as you are left to wonder...did this or that person survive? It's somewhat of a guessing game at times and certain bits are left to your imagination. I can see why the movie is an award-winner, and I am dying to read the book on which it's based to see if I can find out what happened to this character or that. I'll have to give this film two somewhat puzzled thumbs up.

Oh! I love 'strange', Dabbit. I am a fairly big David Lynch fan, if you ever saw one of his movies, such as 'Dune', 'Twin Peaks' or 'Blue Velvet' - not to mention 'Eraserhead', etc.

Mind you, they are quite, well, 'quirky', and it's sometimes befuddling trying to figure out where he's going, but great fun if you are into really quirky films.
