The genre of this movie is definitely horror, no doubt about it. A story about two little girls who was abandoned by their father in a cabin in the woods. How do they live?
Somewhere in the other cities, their father's brother Lucas and his girlfriend Annabel pay a private investigator to look for those girls since they are nowhere to be found and there are no bodies as a proof of their absence. After five years of searching, Lucas finally found the two girls, Victoria and Lily, they are alive and healthy. How? In the middle of the woods, how do the girls live? Well, Mama feed them with berries.
Lucas, took the girls in with him. They were under doctors investigation, since they forgot how to speak and communicate with other human being. They crawl, climb and only talks "Mama". Annabel, who has no connection in what so ever with the girls, doesn't know what to do and how to communicate with the girls. She also feel something weird happening, after Lucas falls in the stairs and have a serious wounds and have to stay in the hospital for quite some time.
Annabel see shadows, Victoria give her hints that Mama is following them and stay with them. She stays in the closet, and sometimes plays with them. There are moments when Lily, giggles and laugh, plays with blankets with no one. Somehow, Mama get jealous since she thought all of her girls will be taken away from her. So, she intrude their lives and also killed their doctor.
Who is Mama? I won't deliver you the answer, since the excitement will lost if I told you the whole story. One of the most horror movie I see, moral of the story is a mother will always tries to protect her children no matter what happen at any time and anywhere.
I don't know why they put a 50-50 closing in the end, it kinda left me off balance but its an art, we will never know the reason of it. I give this movie 3,4/5 stars!
