    Do you believe in fairies ?

    This film is about a vengeful spirit killing a group of people who looks at her face. Before, she was a nice old lady that bakes a cake for children who lose their teeth. She was badly burned in a kitchen fire and as a result was very sensitive to light. Now she walks around with a mask covering her scarred face and lives by night. One day, two children go missing and the tooth fairy is blamed. Before the tooth fairy is put to her death, she warns them 'What I took before in kindness, I shall take forever in revenge.' The next morning, the children turn up. Oops!

    This is a very suspenseful and smart film. Some scenes races against time as the characters try to stay out of the dark as lights one by one go out. Burning flames die down and flashlights switch off. If you think staying in the car is safe, you're wrong.

    A step away from the slasher-flicks and back toward the classic suspense movies. It's like watching Nightmare on Elm Street for the first time, with flashes of Candyman and the feeling of Pitch Black. A healthy mix of comedy and human reaction made everything that much more real. Probably one of the best certificate 15 horrors around.

    Starts good then...hmm

    If you want to walk away from this movie thinking it was pretty good then here's what to do, watch the first 20mins then turn off and do something else!

    It has a good premise and builds well but unfortunatly turns sour with weak charactors,predictable plot,crap effects and above all the demon is not very scary - you'll laugh at her moaning and groaning whilst floating around the room.

    Mind you, I didnt expect too much so if you are REALLY bored one night then.....
