[QUOTE="frankthedm, post: 3256568, member: 1164"] Don't count on it. Movies this dark don't make mad cash and that is what puts movies on wide release. I liked it. Was annoyed how much parking costs in Chi town if one does not plan ahead. But I'd say it was a 23 dollar movie.I don't think they were that dark overall IMHO, there was potential for them to be far darker. Darker than Hollywood lets them be, but to me [B]very old school fey[/B] would require she [spoiler]pull a [U]changling swap[/U] with her baby brother for entry to the fey realm[/spoiler] rather than [spoiler]choose to sacrifice herselfself or an innocent[/spoiler]. To me that is good and evil playing hardball, rather than being dark oldschool fey. As for if they are real or not...[spoiler]The mandrake root the faun / satyr / Pan gives the girl seems real and its dying screems seems to badly effect the mother. At the end, after the girl seems denied access from the fey realm forever, the Step-father does [I]not[/I] see the faun / satyr / Pan giving the girl her 'second chance' and so at that time the girl might be delusional. Her golden entry in the fea court pans out with the girl's body dying in the real world so that could have been her 'near death experience', in this case followed by death.[/spoiler]... It all comes down to how happy you want the ending to be! ;) [/QUOTE]
