I thought the movie was incredible
I only started to see this movie from the part the baby tree is eating its mothers hair. it was still one of the best movies ive seen in a long time. Even though it had a rather unhappy ending.
True, the girl was annoying, but she recognized that although the tree stump was a lethal threat, she could feel its hopelessness and inevitability. My least favorite character of Otesanek would have to be the girls father. His indifference and lack of sympathy for anything but himself made him, I felt, a very negative character.
One of the other things that struck me in this film was that the girl was willing and had the capability to charm the lechy man to her, so she could have him eaten. "you speak of the devil, the devil arrives" to the young girl, the old man was the devil. The second time when the father of the baby tree came down there I think she believed it was his responsibility to do something about the matter. She didint want to see the old lady chop up the monster, because she felt that she would become into the old lady working there in the future.
But it was still a very interesting movie. It was kind of like The Thing. an organic, yet plant-like, monster that lives to consume, without any pity or remorse. Loved and afraid of those that created it, yet oblivious and unmindful that thing is killing their fellow neighbors where they live.
I thought it was an incredible film. Im glad I saw it. and im going to see it again.
