Search - Red Riding Hood on DVD

An overall interesting horror movie about a girl who dresses up and kills people with a mysterious creature named George. It's enjoyable except for the main character's overacting at some points and some things that do not make much sense when thought about. This film is the main actress's only role ever.

You know how when there is a wreck you just have to look to see what happened as you pass. This movie is that car wreck. It is so easy to know what is coming next, it's dumb.
In my day we had a movie called Evil Dead. It was equally dumb but was so good they made 2 follow up movies to it. This movie is on par with it.
Is it scary? No
Is it gore filled? No
It is dumb. It is beyond stupid, So dumb that it is good.
So if your into blood and guts mixed with dumb, this works if not well then this is the worst movie in the world to you. It takes a rare talent to pull this off and I think this movie did.

Really weird

"Basically what you have is this kid, Jenny, who is really mentally deranged and does crazy damage to people who she thinks has wronged her. The grandmother gets caught up and trapped in her delusions and is put through utter hell. I literally had to cover my eyes and not watch some of the stuff, it was that GROSS and the most memorable one involved a nail gun shot straight into an eyeball."

THE BETTER TO SLAY YOU WITH

"With lush Rome backgrounds and a rather unique plot, RED RIDING HOOD is a little better than I had expected. Newcomer Susan Satta looking like a feminine young Corey Feldman plays Jenny, a somewhat deranged 12 year old who takes it upon herself to bring justice to criminal types. This justice is meted out in pretty gory violence, with the aid of her mysterious friend George. Kathleen Archebald combines the hammishness of Tallulah Bankhead and Joan Crawford in her role as the actress grandmother of Jenny who comes to Rome to take the child back to New York. Of course, Jenny doesn't want to go and she goes to extreme measures to keep granny disabled.

A weird little thriller, with some unique twists, RED RIDING HOOD is actually a derivative of psycho thrillers dating back to BAD SEED, PSYCHO and others, and despite its innate cheesiness, it's a diverting thriller for fans of the genre."

Grandma,what a big axe you have.

"O.K. for those who have watched this your probably saying 3 stars "YA NUTS"well maybe I am but to make a movie really good

is no easy task and to make a horror movie good is by far the

hardest look at comedy,drama & action see how many good ones there are and then compare to all the good horrors?horror's

don't even come close,so to see even a O.K. horror film in the

year 2000 is a treat.With red riding hood you are going to like the lead character or hate her(my friends did)I will point out the good points of RED there is a scene in which susan and her

friend george follow a shoplifter to a subway and the wolf plunges a knife in the woman that SCREAM fans would be proud

of,also the dentist was very funny (MARIA!!!)and his nurse was

a plus.(va,va,voom)but most of all there is one scene where

jenny(satta)is talking to george her wolf and she is putting on

her shoes and saying how everyone must pay she looks up at george and James K Cimini directs this wolfs mask inside red

tapestry that would make John Carpenter & Tobe Hooper say

"WOW MAN"so again is it great well no but how many great horror

films are there between 2000-2006 yeah,yeah thought so.Again

I liked the movie you will like Susan Satta or hate her.I think

she is a cutie and was trying her best,so here's to seeing you

in a movie again Susan K Satta."
