The Wolf House

A lot of work went into this. That's something you notice right away.

Incredible visuals thanks to a craftsman's work, "La Casa Lobo" ("The Wolf House") enraptures us in a seemingly interminable nightmare, full of transitions and man-pigs. Weird, disturbing, interesting, breathtaking.

Recommended. Fantastic piece of stop-motion/animation(?

Simply amazing! I cannot imagine how much work these guys had making this film. Additionally, it is super disturbing and creepy. Some moments are even scary!

This is a very artsy film that went all in on the visuals. Unfortunately, it was at the expense of the narrative. There will be some viewers who will enjoy this film for the animation alone, and it is a towering achievement, an art installation come to life. It is atmospheric and haunting, and many viewers will compare it to a nightmare. I personally wanted more story to go along with the incredible sights. They used many mediums to achieve the animation, but much of it involved what looked like paint to create characters and objects, then simulating motion by painting over that. Apparently, this is inspired by true events that occurred in a German cult located in Chile. Trying to describe this movie is like describing music--putting it into words will never be the same as experiencing it.

One of the most amazing pieces of stop motion I've ever seen. I've not seen the like since the works Bruce Bickford. I can't even imagine how much time and dedication this took. In terms of the plot it's...confusing? I admit I didn't really get it. It's not really a horror movie, it's unsettling and surreal like a David Lynch movie. It definitely makes you feel like something awful is going to happen, but it never really does. That said, I'd recommend it to anyone on technical brilliance alone.

The outstanding craftsmanship involved in one of the most mesmerizing animated films I have ever seen, in conjunction with a complex and invigorating narrative present one of the most intriguing films I have seen this year. Its a little to intricate for my liking, and although I dont believe I fully understand its vision, I really appreciate the work and passion put behind its creation.

8.5/10.
