I finally got round to seeing Red Riding Hood this weekend! It is an amazing film, I absolutely loved it, it’s a little but dark and twisted which adds an extra twist to the whole story.
Valerie (Amanda Seyfried) is a beautiful young woman who lives in a small village surrounded by forest, she torn between two men. The man she is in love with, a brooding outsider called Peter (Shiloh Fermandez) and the young man her parents have arranged for her to marry Henry (Max Irons).
Unwilling to be separated Valerie and Peter are planning to run away together, but at the moment they are leaving they find out that Valerie’s older sister has been killed by the werewolf that has plagued the village people for years. For year the village people have had a uneasy truce with the beast, offering a monthly sacrifice of live stock to keep the beast from killing any of the village people.
But under a blood red moon the wolf has upped the stakes for taking a human life, as under the blood red moon a wolf bite can transform a human into a fellow werewolf.
Father Solomon is called upon to help the village be ride of the beast, only his techniques turn out to be just at threatening for the village people as he will stop at nothing to discover which of the villagers if the wolf.
Mean while Valerie has an unpleasant encounter the beast, she can understand it, and it wants her and not one else to go with it.
The search for Valerie begins as she tries to find out who it is that wants her, she suspects that the werewolf is someone she loves also.
The ending has a great twist to it, i would never have suspected the person that turns out the be the werewolf. Amazing film, a must watch!
I hope they make a sequel.
