Craig Misery's reviewDirected by Bryan Bertino, who also brought us The Strangers, comes a highly emotional and tension filled ride. The Monster is beautifully executed on all levels. Tons of use of negative space, letting us think the Monster could be anywhere at anytime, filling the film with suspense and dread. The use of practical fx and lots of dark and rain filled scenes helped the tension build as well. The backstory really got to me and solidified the relationship between the two main characters, making you sad and hopeful at the same time. Zoe Kazan and Ella Ballantine are definitely two names to watch for. Overall I was floored by this film, and that usually takes a lot. I was surprised I hadn't heard of this one sooner. My only complaint comes in the form of wishing the monster looked differently on a creative scale. I've seen similar monsters in other films. They had a chance to bring something to the table that could have a lasting effect in the Creature feature world, but I don't see this one being remembered..Score: 4/5

Child TortureIn order to enjoy the scares, which are pretty good, you have to log a LOT of time watching a little girl in anguish. You watch her suffer parental serious neglect and abuse, you watch her terror as she sees the monster chew people up and listens to their hoarse screams, you watch her fear and grief as she confronts the possibility of losing her mother. If you dig long closeups of little girls with tears streaming down their contorted faces, this is the movie for you!.Score: 1/5

Refreshing Creature FeatureFinally a monster movie that combines a terrifying well acted story. If you love a horrific creature that even when you know it will strike still manages to scare you then this is your type of movie. Buy it!.Score: 5/5

One of the best horror movies I have seenI wasn't expecting much from this, but I was wrong. You get 2 horror movies in 1. The acting, photography, directing, music, sound, all was perfect. Great character development. Even though I kept telling myself it was not true, I was still moved. That is the real test of great fiction..Score: 5/5

Terrible, slow and bad acting!Save your money!!.Score: 1/5

Why?This movie had so much potential. If there is a monster, alien, or any other supernatural being I am usually completely on board, even if the movie isn't that great. The monster was absolutely fantastic (the only redeeming quality; it was scary, very well created, and original. Unfortunately, the movie uses every opportunity to distract you from the reason everyone watched the movie, which was of course because of the monster (hence the title). Very disappointing..Score: 1/5

Not bad..Not a bad little movie..Score: 3/5

BoringWhen did horror films become this? Sappy sentimental plot, lame not scary monster, and the child genious that solves everything at the end. Rotten Tomatoes you lost all credibility. 81% really?.Score: 2/5

Bad bad badReally bad and stupid movie. Save your $$.Score: 1/5

New genre: DramorrorCliff notes without too many spoilers: -it's drama through and through and it can be hard to watch at times. This can be good or bad depending on what kind of horror you like. -Great monster - the child actress in this movie is excellent. - I feel personally cheated of any closure that all the drama built up. -Babadook meets Cujo - it's worth a rent..Score: 3/5

עִבְרִית
אם ובתה נוסעות בשעת לילה מאוחרת ובמזג-אויר סוער כדי לראות את אביה של הילדה. כשהן עוברות בכביש בודד, מתנגשת מכוניתן בזאב והן נשארות תקועות על הכביש הריק. כשהן מחכות להצלה, הן מבינות שהן לא לבד – רוע אימתני מסתתר ביער, תוך כדי כוונה לא לתת להן לעזוב לעולם.

Nederlands
Moeder en dochter zitten opgesloten in een donker bos. Ze worden gemarteld door een krijsend wezen, niet menselijk of dierlijk. De relatie tussen moeder en dochter staat onder grote druk. De 10-jarige Lizzy heeft al het vertrouwen in haar moeder Kathy verloren maar probeert kalm en dapper te blijven. Kathy houdt het nauwelijks nog vol maar weet dat alleen de beschermende liefde van een moeder, haar meest primaire instinct, haar dochter kan redden van het wezen dat loert in de duisternis.

ελληνικά
Μια διαζευγμένη μητέρα και η απείθαρχη κόρη της πρέπει να κάνουν ένα επείγον νυχτερινό ταξίδι με το αμάξι, για να δουν τον πατέρα του κοριτσιού. Καθώς οδηγούν μέσα σε έρημους επαρχιακούς δρόμους με κακό καιρό, ξάφνου συγκρούονται, αλλά δεν τραυματίζονται σοβαρά. Το αυτοκίνητο όμως είναι «νεκρό», και καθώς σπεύδουν για βοήθεια, συνειδητοποιούν ότι είναι ολομόναχες στον έρημο δρόμο. Ή όχι; Κάτι το δαιμονικό ελλοχεύει στο γύρω δάσος, το οποίο δεν σκοπεύει ποτέ να τις αφήσει να φύγουν.

Майка с 10-годишната си дъщеря се оказват в капан в гората. Нещо обаче се крие в тази гора. Нещото по звука, който издава се различава от всичко, което те са чували преди. Не е на човек, не е и животно. Звук подобен на тропота на хиляди коне или вик на майка, като плачещо бебе или вопли на баща. Нещото се крие в тъмното наоколо и това нещо неуморно върви след тях....

Deutsch
Die geschiedene, alleinerziehende Mutter Kathy (Zoe Kazan) fährt wegen eines Notfalls mit ihrer Tochter Lizzy (Ella Ballentine) durch die Nacht, um den Vater des Mädchens zu sehen. Doch während ihrer Fahrt durch die stürmische Dunkelheit auf den verlassenen Landstraßen werden sie plötzlich gestoppt. Eine Kollision verhindert die Weiterfahrt - der Schock sitzt tief. Scheinbar sind sie noch einmal mit dem Schrecken davon gekommen, es sind keine ernsthaften Verletzungen auszumachen. Doch mit was sind sie zusammen gestoßen? Einzig ein großer Zahn liefert ihnen einen Hinweis, doch erinnert dieser an nichts, was sie kennen... Weil das Auto hinüber ist, müssen sie zu Fuß Hilfe suchen und haben dabei bald die Vorahnung, dass sie nicht alleine in der Dunkelheit sind. Irgendetwas beobachtet und verfolgt sie und scheint den festen Vorsatz zu haben, sie nicht mehr lebend aus dem Wald zu entkommen zu lassen...
