Last month, ‘MAMA’ came out in the cinemas over here (UK). The film deals with the story of two young girls abandoned in a forest cabin, fostered by an unknown entity that they fondly call ‘Mama’.
It was based on a short film of the same name, that caught the eye of Guillermo Del Toro, which then took it on to produce the feature.
I am yet to see the feature, and I don’t think it could do the short any justice whatsoever. It is one of the most well made short films that I have ever seen, and genuinely scared me, which rarely happens to me when I watch any fiction.
Please do yourself a favour and watch the link below. There is a short introduction by Del Toro in the beginning.
If you have seen the feature, let me know in the comments, how it compares to the short.
Enjoy!
