I would have used wood.

I'm quickly throwing this review and movie link out there today as I'm about to bolt and be gone for the day. The title of today's blog is just a stupid joke based on the title of today's film.




 Today's film is PAPERHOUSE. A dark fantasy film with horror elements.


Here is the film on YouTube.

Paperhouse is a weird little film. Basic plot is a girl named Anna, suffering from an illness, draws a picture of a house and then dreams of it.




She then goes back and draws a boy in the window. In her dream she sees him but the boy can't walk. Anna thinks this is because she only drew the visible portion of him in the window. She finds out the boy, Marc, is a real person. She then goes back and draws her father into the picture to help carry Marc away from the house but she accidentally draws him with an angry looking expression, which she then scribbles out. This causes the dream version of her father to be a mean sumbitch.


As the film plays out, the kids find a way to defeat Mr. Grumpypants but Anna learns that Marc is getting sicker. Anna then makes it goal to help set Marc free of his condition.

It's an interesting film and one I like to revisit from time to time.
So there you have it. Short and sweet. Have some PAPERHOUSE while I'm gone. Peace out.
