MAMA

Release Date : 8th February, 2013

Director :  Andrés Muschietti

Mama is a 2013 supernatural horror film based on 2008 Argentine short film Mamá. The film follows two young girls abandoned in a forest cabin, fostered by an unknown entity that they fondly call “Mama”, which eventually follows them to their new suburban home led by two adults after their uncle retrieves them. Mama received generally positive reviews from critics, with many praising the performances and atmosphere, with criticism for plot and writing. The film works brilliantly as a psychological thriller, which constantly plays with your mind. It does not resort to cheap gore or clichéd ghost appearances to give you the creeps. He leaves you shell-shocked instead as he plays around with shadows, mysterious evil noises and baffling supernatural occurrences. Mama is atmospheric and the haunting mood of the film impressively never goes down. Mama is a treat for intense horror movie buffs.
