Beautiful is a word only too often used. In the context of a movie that is so horrifying, it may seem quite inappropriate. But this movie with its picturesque cinematography and spine chilling sound recording, becomes beautiful because it takes one to those recesses of our mind which we shudder to acknowledge the existence of. It disturbs one, makes one uncomfortable... I felt like switching the channels, lowering the volume... anything to prevent me from experiencing the movie or acknowledging how disturbingly close we are and have always been towards unleashing the thinly disguised Dr Jekyll within us... the children behaved as children do while facing peer pressure, just the consequences were much greater this time.
