Plot: A teenage girl's coming of age comes with a terrifying twist in this spellbinding take on the werewolf legend. Since birth, Anna (Bel Powley) has been raised in isolation by a man she knows only as Daddy (Chucky star Brad Dourif) who has done everything possible to conceal the truth about the girl's origins from her. But when the teenage Anna is suddenly thrust into the real world under the protection of no-nonsense police officer Ellen (Liv Tyler), it soon becomes clear that the young woman is far from ordinary. Unable to adjust to a normal life, Anna finds herself drawn instead to the wild freedom of the forest while struggling to resist the growing bloodlust that has awakened inside her. This moodily atmospheric thriller combines supernatural scares with a myth-like tale of self discovery.
My Movie Review: The movie is promising supernatural craft hidden in the dark of the woods:) Wildling is outlandish horror that waited for its prey to attack before unleashing her inner beast! Lots of hidden gems found in this film the legendary werewolf stage gone wild quite disgusting but brilliant when bloody tooth come off that's the turning point as it became raw and effective:) Bel Powley is ferocious unpredictable act worth seeing performance of untamed coming of age monster teen in a world full of uncertainty confused on her existence and what path to choose? Collin Kelly-Sordelet is a breath of fresh air his presence keeps this movie light balancing the darkness of Anna making romantic gesture like company in the woods until she found the light!
Critics Consensus: A clever, sharp-fanged mélange of classic midnight-movie horror and modern indie ingenuity. The first hour or so of the movie was honestly quite good in my opinion. The acting, while not being great was good enough, the story was interesting and it succeeded at being an original monster movie. A supernatural “What’s Happening to My Body?” parable in company with “Carrie,” “Ginger Snaps” and last year’s “Thelma,” Wildling is low-key with an undertone of menace, skillfully directed by Fritz Böhm in his feature debut (though some of his nighttime scenes are so dark it genuinely hard to tell what really going on).
