This film was a slow burn and had some problems, but Callum Heath is the cutest kid in movies, ever.

He really is. Poor little pumpkin, having to deal with the loss of his mother and his dad losing his marbles. And well, the ending too.

I don't think the father went crazy, I think he was possessed.

Yeah, the worst nightmare though is having to live with this clusterboink of a movie on his resume.

I don't know about 'cute', but he did put up a nicely realistic performance. You see so many fake, overly precocious movie children (especially in horror movies) that it was quite refreshing to see a kid just be normal for a change.

Though his performance was good but I wouldn't call it all natural. He was cool all the times like if there was no effect on him. He was like a little android who is designed to interact with humans using real life words.

If you're hungry, try a piece of your friend!

I have to concur. Super cute kid, but when his dad is running with him through the tunnel he is perfectly calm. A kid would actually probably be screaming/crying/worried looking.

Exactly.

To me , the cutest kid in a horror movie was the kid in Before I Wake.....I just wanted to take him home, he was such a sad kid DAMN

I couldn’t understand a word the kid said. No subtitles on the DVD I watched. He is a pretty cute lil guy though.
