Critic Reviews for Wicked Little Things

Cardone's supernatural thriller is an utterly derivative and clich offering...

Cinema Crazed
Neither this nor that, Zombies (aka Wicked Little Things) offers up a creaky old forest-load of horror cliches but never quite sees the wood for the trees.

Feels like something that was written, shot and glued together over the course of one drab and uneventful weekend.

Wicked Little Things wastes a lot of potential; but if you approach it more as a supernatural drama and not so much a horror film, it's not altogether bad for the price of a rental.

It is a fun undead romp with very attractive girls, creepy kids, and a good amount of the ole dark and chunky. If that's all you want out of it, you won't be disappointed.

Audience Reviews for Wicked Little Things

Jan 22, 2015

Sure I've seen worse but damn was I ever bored. Apart from not holding one iota of the viewer's attention, there are many aspects of this "family moves to a creepy backwoods town" that just outright don't make sense.

It was okay. Not as scary as I thought it would be. I wouldn't recommend to watch it though.

Do you like movies that focus on the relationship between mothers and daughters, 97% of which is set in the dark? If so, this is the film for you. If, however, you've seen the poster of this film and expect brain-munching, limb-lopping, guts-a-plenty with social commentary - or even moderately scary children, then this is not the film for you. I'm going to stop giving these low-budget horror movies a chance.

This was an alright supernatural/horror movie that had a few scares here and there and was very atmospheric but it was lacking suspense and intensity. I thought the acting was ok but nothing great and the story was pretty intriguing but nothing that pulls you in right away, at least for me and I just didn't think that the kids were that scary looking and they were too many of them. This is kind of similar in some ways to Plague Town but not as creepy or entertaining. There was just nothing that special about it that makes it stand out from other horror movies of its kind and to me it's kind of forgettable, worth a rent though. Overall it was alright nothing great just more of the same. More of a 2.5 out of 5 than a 3 star rating.
