Rating:  - Not sure what to think
I absolutely love the premise of this movie. A little girl's drawings come to life in her dreams. What happens when she forgets to include something in her drawing? What happens when she adds something? What if she makes someone look too angry in a drawing? Will they be angry in her dreams? What if she needs to erase something to reverse a mistake? Will the drawing let her? Will there be consequences? What a wonderfully original and very clever premise for a movie.

Rating:  - Do not read MS Roberts' review.
If you have not watched this movie yet, do not read the review written by M.S. Roberts below. It is full of spoilers and gives no warning. These kind of reviews are careless and, in this case, can ruin certain elements of a movie. Paperhouse is an excellent little fantasy/horror film that most certainly is not for children. Think of it as one of Grimm's fairy tales treated the adult way.
Rating: - It's the best, but not all will love it.

Paperhouse is a horror movie, but it isn't gory or bloody,
and most people who into horror films, would rather watch a bad horror movie with blood and monsters, than watch a good movie with no blood or evil creatures.
For that reason horror fans don't always like Paperhouse the first time they see it.
Also the film is directed in a certain way, and leave questions.

Rating: - Odd but strangely watchable

Anna soon finds herself dreaming about the house she has drawn, and in ... Read More
Rating:  - Paper (that belongs in the bin) House
From the director, Bernard Rose, I was expecting another great film after seeing the magnificent achievement of Candyman. By god was I wrong. This film is, without a doubt, the biggest dissapointment I had ever come across and possibly one of the worst films I had ever seen. With a rediculous plot and, oh my god, the acting was absolutely dreadful I almost turned it off half way through. But I couldnt judge something I havent seen fully. I have noticed some may think that this is one of those films ... Read More
