Under the care of Psychologist Dr. Raglan, Nola Carveth is encouraged to outwardly manifest her anger over her painful divorce from her husband Frank. These manifestations take the form of dwarflike mutants who are born for the sole purpose of acting out Nola's violent fantasies of revenge. (texto oficial do distribuidor)

Uma psicologia perturbadora, um mistério arrepiante, assassinatos sangrentos, uma deformação fisiológica repulsiva do corpo humano, uma controvérsia de terapia de choque. E tudo isto no pacote delicadamente íntimo e sombrio da genialidade de Cronenberg. O seu filme de terror mais intenso.

Cronenberg puts all the horror on the shoulders on the “killers dwarfs” wearing children overalls and wielding hammers, unfortunately, it’s mostly gratuitous and not very scary. You can't deny the chilling, bleak atmosphere, but if you can't take the core of all evil seriously, it can hardly frighten you or arouse any unpleasant emotions.

I was expecting monster horror and I got something completely different, but I haven't seen a horror movie with mutated goblins yet, so why not. David Cronenberg once again does a great job with the atmosphere especially in the final third, but this time he didn't satisfy me enough in the first half to make me cheer with excitement like I did in the second half, so I can't in good conscience give it 4*. Definitely Croneneberg's best horror film after The Fly and Shivers.

Quality psychological horror by Cronenberg that stands out by its incredibly disturbing atmosphere. The first half is pretty chatty, but right when I was telling myself that this wouldn’t warrant an above-average rating, the film fully caught my attention and the ending is extremely tense. I will remember all those scenes with the child mutants for a long time (they look pretty good), but the most important thing is that they have such an unpleasant evil aura around them that they irradiate uncompromising rawness and tangible malice. Another thing worth praise is the fantastically escalating tension by the end.

This time Cronenberg fully subordinated his classical trademarks (gynecology, psychiatry, body deformation) to the effect of self-efficacy. As a means of doing so, he chose little men in winter overalls with hammers in their hands and lots of long-winded chatter. The suspense is solid only up to the first two visits of the hissing kids, then after the finale (typical gradation) there is once again plenty of verbal filler, which is not even helped out by an incorrect scene of a school class standing around a teacher lying in a pool of blood. But I’ll give it 3 ½ stars for the drops of icy sweat on my back.
