"This was a strange and eerie dark fairytale. The plot is a story within a story, all about a young woman who tries not to be seduced into bad behavior by a wolf. 🐺 It is little red riding hood with a strange and surreal vibe. I honestly don't know what to think of this film. I am still trying to process all of the imagery. 😳 I do have to say that the man to wolf transformation scenes were pretty good for the 1980's. Judge for yourself."

"This is the second Neil Jordan’s movie I saw. I thought it was mesmerizing. Classic fairy tales get a makeover. Loved it."
