Okay well the first one was a long time ago where burning women for dumb things was normal. Secondly, the child was the only one there that they could prove. The mocking from police was very unnecessary, but unfortunately also pretty realistic.

They are a hundred years apart though..

He was the only other person in the house at the time and the kid was rambling about the Tooth Fairy coming to get him I think a logical person would think the kid was off his rocker

+Mr Critical Would they think he's crazy? Yeah, probably. But that doesn't explain how they come to the conclusion he killed his mom, you know, because um... how?!

I mean, the kid is at an age where he believes in the Tooth Fairy, assumes it was coming that night, is it that odd that he'd think that's what the killer was even if mundane? How many kids if they saw a pasty guy break into their house after, say, watching Dracula or a Halloween tv episode would think the burglar was a Vampire? At the very least, without having established issues with his life before, I'm inclined to think a random joe would think it was an intruder before the child who is also clearly distraught over his mother being dead.

Evidence must exist.

@@troodon1096 Because the only option outside of the impossible tends to be the answer. No one came or went. It was only him in the house. Telling stories about some supernatural monster? Supernatural Monsters are supposed to be impossible so.. It only leave the kid. Plus do you see how often police get things wrong and how few muder cases actually get solved? Of course they would try to pin it on the kid. Tie it up nice and easy so there is no need to scare the locals.

oh come, you missed the point, Kyle saw her by accident, he was supposed to be sleeping, also kids are told to not look at her, not like they believe in her anyway..

the 3rd pixie Because in all horror films; the small town cops are stupid dumb asses

true except when its the mayor whose the stupid dumbass (Jaws anyone?)

Not to mention he brings up all the missing/dead kids in the town. The sheriff ignores him when he makes this comment, so it's safe to assume that it's a horrible but expected occurance in the town as they can not ever find a "rational" explanation for it.

It is her. But she was in a Another Horror Movie the year before this. GhostShip. She literally plays the little girl in the movie. Just to answer your question.. 6 years later. LOL.

I'd love to hear them! This sounded like a very troubled production from what I understand, given the finished movie looks like it was edited with a chainsaw.

Yeah, it was pretty bad. All the executives were young, stupid and inexperienced, as was the director, who'd only directed one student short film prior. And then he went on to direct "Battle: LA" and the brilliant "Wrath of the Titans." Ugh. The early drafts of the script were actually pretty cool, but you could never get around the silliness of the main conceit: That's it's A) The Tooth Fairy, and B) the whole "she can't get you in the light" bullshit. The original monster as designed and created by Steve Wang and co. (including me) was awesome! And it was a pleasure being a young artist storyboarding action/horror scenes with that sweet looking monster! We built it, painted it, animatronics, special blacklight paint to make her veins glow, etc... And they boxed it up and shipped it to Australia for the shoot... And then director Jonathan Liebsman made the FX team ( I didn't go) sit around on set in Australia for about three weeks, trying to shoot the monster a couple times, but never able to figure out how to shoot it. Finally, they were sent home and fired, and Stan Winston's team was brought in to deliver a generic zombie woman as the Tooth Fairy. Tragic. The editing and constant re-writes are a whole other issue. My step-father, John Fasano, was one of the writers/producers on that show, and he was manipulated and re-written and edited and... yeah. Everyone of talent was fucked over on that movie. Oh, and did you know that star Cheney Clay committed suicide a few years after? Anyway, I'm happy to tell you more. Look me up on Facebook, my name's Jesse D'Angelo. I live in Los Angeles, CA. Ohhhhh yeaaaaaah! You can check me out on the "Rock n' Roll Nightmare" episode of a KZfaq show similar to yours, "Good-Bad or Bad-Bad" if you're interested in hearing me talk about a terrible 80's film I acted in as a young kid... Anyway, look me up if you feel like it! Cheers! Jesse

That's certainly fascinating reading. Even the trailers had a shifting backstory for Matilda (was that a rewrite itself?), but that shouldn't be surprising since 60% of the trailer was all deleted material. I did check out your IMDb page, and I see you did storyboards for Sky Captain - I'd imagine that was pretty fun, I remember that movie having a great visual style.

Despite its shortcomings I throughly enjoyed this film. It's awesome that you helped make it. Kudos.

@@JesseWolfboy the original monster design at 1:22 was awesome. Have to love producers who don't know shit yet love to meddle. :P So I've always been confused by the plot a little in that, is she a ghost or is she like a flesh and blood monster? I've always interpreted it as she's a ghost but then again there's a lot working against that theory.

The original design looked pretty scary. The one in the movie looked like Freddy Krueger in drag

“They,” more like the stupid executives at Columbia. The Emoji Movie

What they should be using is psychopathic. Psychosis and psychopathy are different concepts. Then again, I doubt fiction writers tend to care about that distinction.

Thank you

Yeah it’s sorta funny how this is basically a crappier, dumber version of Lights Out-the story mechanics there were a bit confusing at times (especially when they brought in the idea of using a blacklight to cheat around her invisibility), but the monster was at least consistent. This also kinda feels reminiscent of Boogeyman (which would’ve released only 2 years or so later) that deals with similar ideas of a monster targeting children, childhood trauma, and overcoming fear, but while that movie isn’t a stellar masterpiece I’d probably say it’s a better version of what this movie wanted to be.

There was a deleted scene where Ray explains why he hates Kyle because Kyle stabbed in the back literally with a school supply. So I guess maybe Ray was his bully and that was a problem

Personally would have preferred then covering the original story from Port fairy which the making of mentions being heavily inspired by. Recommend checking out the legend

The original Tooth Fairy monster designs they had were great. We really got cheated out of something cool.

Apparently nobody bothered to google it and think it means "hyper violent", they'd also have learned that antipsycotics are prescribed all the time "off label" for anxiety - so the conclusion "you're taking these you must be a violent psyco" is utter nonsense.

I would have thought a kid was more likely to blurt out something like that, as they tend to have a less developed understanding of social norms. I think it is actually (perhaps accidentally) more believable in that this is not his mum or someone he even knows well. I think you could argue that their shared experience, makes it plausible that the kid would float the idea of suicide. Seemingly this is done in the hopes he is not the only one to have had suicidal thoughts.

@@wjd23104 Thank you.

@@lunabearsong2043 What exactly, are you thanking me for?

@@wjd23104 For the explanation behind Michael's admission. It's appreciated.

SAD!

You've put way too much thought into this my friend

You're trying to apply logic to a film that uses none.

Same here.

but SHE was actually guilty

Who, Elly Kedward or Matilda Dixon?

Troin The Blair Witch did kill kids

And yet that idiotic Wicken in Blair Witch 2 said she was a good witch

Horror movies = Stupid fiction

It's her saying "Kyle!"

Acknowledging using a terrible cliché is not always absolving of said terrible cliché.

That's the whole point, she looks 26 and he looks 8 what the fuck were mom and dad doing for 18 years that they waited so long to have another kid?

Obvious explanation, after the first child they thought "never again!!!", and from then on used protection, until it 18 years later either failed or was once forgotten.

Very much the same. Plus my mom has several carnival porcelain masks hanging on the wall, still creed me out.

Is it Don't Be Afraid of the Dark? I've seen the remake, it was okay.

looked it up yeah i meant that one

Yeah, his only other known role was being in The Shield. Interestingly, the actress who played Cat was recently in WandaVision.

A nadar sub for you
