This is a movie that plays heavily into loss and uncertainty. Using a strained relationship between mother and daughter to understand what is going on. It goes in a strange direction, one that will leave you shocked by the outcome. Christina Ricci is as always delightful to watch in the leading role. While the rest of the movie doesn’t put enough on to the bigger mystery going on.

Final Thoughts Monstrous is a by-the-books fantasy horror, relying on the shock, rather than building up enough.
