Peter Pan's Neverland Nightmare

It's safe to say Peter Pan's Neverland Nightmare wasn't a movie night anyone expected to survive emotionally intact-especially not for Winny, Sunny, Tails, and Sweet, who left the screening looking like they'd just stepped out of a fever dream. We've watched horror before (Sinners being a recent one), but this one? This was something else. It didn't just flirt with darkness-it dove headfirst into it, dragging childhood nostalgia down with it.

Some of us-Willow, Kuromi, and Amy-were admittedly surprised by how much they enjoyed the film. Willow especially appreciated the bold reimagining of familiar characters, highlighting the gruesome creativity behind some of the kills, like the scenes with Tinkerbell and the alligator (yikes). Kuromi, a known fan of gore, praised the film for its commitment to the horror genre, saying it embraced its madness in a way that felt refreshing. Amy found the unexpected turns in the plot exciting, even if it meant watching Peter Pan become someone truly unrecognizable.

On the flip side, Winny, Tails, and Sweet weren't as forgiving. They found the excessive violence-particularly the disturbing scenes involving children-a line too far. While Winny did admit the pacing was strong and the atmosphere consistently creepy, he couldn't help but feel like the film traded meaning for shock value. Sweet was especially critical of the movie's handling of child endangerment, calling it exploitative rather than artistic. Tails, meanwhile, appreciated the darker lens on Peter Pan but still struggled with how far the story went to disturb.

Acting-wise, Sunny gave props to the cast-Peter Duza as the kidnapped child was hauntingly believable, and the actress behind Tinkerbell delivered a twisted, grotesque performance that stuck with everyone for all the wrong (and maybe right?) reasons. But tonal shifts and pacing inconsistencies did throw off both Sunny and Willow at points, making the whole film feel like it couldn't quite decide what horror path it wanted to take.

Overall, this film split the room. For some, it was a bold, bloody reinterpretation of a classic story worth watching just for the insanity of it all. For others, it was a brutal reminder that not every fairytale should be turned into a nightmare. Either way-no one's looking at Peter Pan the same again.

Rating: 6/10.

Embarrassing attempt at edgy horror, shamelessly ripping off better films while offering nothing but empty gore and tasteless shock value. This is another case of hack filmmakers throwing money at a public domain fairytale without a single original thought or shred of self-awareness. The film reimagines Peter Pan as a schizophrenic child kidnapper and Tinker Bell as a trans heroin addict with Stockholm syndrome, but instead of being edgy or provocative, it's like watching chatgpt crash and burn trying to write a fan fiction.

It's worth mentioning how awful the last 20 minutes are. The whole thing feels like a fever dream of people smashing sugar glass and screaming in circles. Maybe the actors and cameraman were just left unsupervised on set. Despite the gratuitous gore that desperately imitates Terrifier, it's so devoid of context or tension. If you've ever wanted to waste time watching a budget-burn, congratulations-this is your chance.

Neverland nightmare is the third part in what im glad is a universe thats happening.because like blood and honey this film is over the top with gore but has a cast that really pull well together. In this film peter pan used to work at the circus but after having some sort of disolusion about a place called never land he feels its necessarily to kidnap kids and bring them there. Martin portlock plays him well and its very creppy and off putting, almost reminds me of art the clown but a talking one. Its cool how they brought the darlings into this story and its really good how it all played out. Tinker bell they did dirty but I still feel they were a very good actor in this to. Overall a pretty good edition to the series.

One of the worst movies i've ever seen. When you see the trailer it looks really good, but when i watched it i wanted to bleach my brain and forget about this movie forever. First of the plot doesn't make any sense. They show you some things but don't explain why it happened and how and you wonder why the hell they even say it. Next thing is Netherland, idk if i had high hopes but in the movie Netherland doesn't even exist. Its just two gay drug addicts who kidnap kids so they send them to Neverland. That's the whole plot basically. Three is the unrealistic killing. A few times i noticed how really easy it seems to kill someone or break some part of their body, but other times no matter what you do they just don't die. I understand its a movie and all but it seem too unrealistic. It was all gore and not horror, I wouldn't recommend, i'm mad i watched it at the cinema, i wanted to leave at the beginning.

I really love when I start watching a movie expecting to end up disappointed, and the exact opposite happens.

A lot of things in this film aren't original, but it all feels more like a tribute to the original rather than a cheap rip-off. The atmosphere is excellent. The film is never boring, not for a moment, and the story is well thought-out. There are several unexpected moments that only add to the grotesqueness of the entire film. The characters are well developed, especially Peter Pan and Tinker Bell.

All in all - I expected (more or less) a standard Neverland story told through a horror lens, but I actually got so much more! This is a psychotic conglomeration of madness, filth, and drug addiction, and Peter Pan is the crown jewel of insanity and a unique portal to the land of Neverland.

Seven stars from me!
