I recently watched two stunning European horror movies: Goodnight Mommy and When Animals Dream. Both have a genuinely subtle and creepy air about them. They are not examples of the rapidly edited scenes and tired scares of American films. Even though I found When Animals Dream increasingly conventional as the movie progressed and I was able to see the plot twist of Goodnight Mommy almost immediately, I still enjoyed the chilling atmosphere and character details. Both are nicely done. Fans of gore and cheap thrills will probably be disappointed, though. These are cerebral horror films.
