Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThe movie was notoriously under-marketed with virtually no advertising by its studio despite having heavy-hitting producers such as Seth Rogan and a generally overall positive response by critics and audiences. The film also opened in July against Barbie and Oppenheimer despite having a distinctly Halloween atmosphere.
- GoofsAfter the teacher goes to Peter's house the first time, his mother confronts him in his room with his drawing and Peter has a bloody chin. This is before he is pushed over by the bully, which happens later on.
- Quotes
The Girl (Sarah): Peter, please, you're my brother, don't you see Peter, it's in our blood, you killed mom and dad, you're just like me.
Peter: No! I'm not like you.
Monster Sarah: Do you really gonna think this is gonna keep me down here? Every night... when you lie in bed... you'll wonder if you locked the door, or saw a shadow move. Every creak, every groan, every tap in the wall, you'll think of me. We're family Peter.
[pause]
Monster Sarah: I will always be with you. Always...
However, the film's ending falls short of expectations. In an attempt to create a frightening atmosphere, the final scene is shot in near darkness, making it difficult to discern what is happening on screen. Rather than being scary, this lack of visibility is frustrating and detracts from the overall impact of the film, which is a shame because otherwise this could have been an outstanding film.
Overall, "Cobweb" earns an exact score of 58 / 100 from me. Fans of the genre may find it worth watching, but others may want to give it a miss.
