Peter Pan: Incubo nell'isola che non c'è

One of the worst movies i've ever seen. When you see the trailer it looks really good, but when i watched it i wanted to bleach my brain and forget about this movie forever. First of the plot doesn't make any sense. They show you some things but don't explain why it happened and how and you wonder why the hell they even say it. Next thing is Netherland, idk if i had high hopes but in the movie Netherland doesn't even exist. Its just two gay drug addicts who kidnap kids so they send them to Neverland. That's the whole plot basically. Three is the unrealistic killing. A few times i noticed how really easy it seems to kill someone or break some part of their body, but other times no matter what you do they just don't die. I understand its a movie and all but it seem too unrealistic. It was all gore and not horror, I wouldn't recommend, i'm mad i watched it at the cinema, i wanted to leave at the beginning.

It's safe to say Peter Pan's Neverland Nightmare wasn't a movie night anyone expected to survive emotionally intact-especially not for Winny, Sunny, Tails, and Sweet, who left the screening looking like they'd just stepped out of a fever dream. We've watched horror before (Sinners being a recent one), but this one? This was something else. It didn't just flirt with darkness-it dove headfirst into it, dragging childhood nostalgia down with it.

Some of us-Willow, Kuromi, and Amy-were admittedly surprised by how much they enjoyed the film. Willow especially appreciated the bold reimagining of familiar characters, highlighting the gruesome creativity behind some of the kills, like the scenes with Tinkerbell and the alligator (yikes). Kuromi, a known fan of gore, praised the film for its commitment to the horror genre, saying it embraced its madness in a way that felt refreshing. Amy found the unexpected turns in the plot exciting, even if it meant watching Peter Pan become someone truly unrecognizable.

On the flip side, Winny, Tails, and Sweet weren't as forgiving. They found the excessive violence-particularly the disturbing scenes involving children-a line too far. While Winny did admit the pacing was strong and the atmosphere consistently creepy, he couldn't help but feel like the film traded meaning for shock value. Sweet was especially critical of the movie's handling of child endangerment, calling it exploitative rather than artistic. Tails, meanwhile, appreciated the darker lens on Peter Pan but still struggled with how far the story went to disturb.

Acting-wise, Sunny gave props to the cast-Peter Duza as the kidnapped child was hauntingly believable, and the actress behind Tinkerbell delivered a twisted, grotesque performance that stuck with everyone for all the wrong (and maybe right?) reasons. But tonal shifts and pacing inconsistencies did throw off both Sunny and Willow at points, making the whole film feel like it couldn't quite decide what horror path it wanted to take.

Overall, this film split the room. For some, it was a bold, bloody reinterpretation of a classic story worth watching just for the insanity of it all. For others, it was a brutal reminder that not every fairytale should be turned into a nightmare. Either way-no one's looking at Peter Pan the same again.

Rating: 6/10.

Walking into Peter Pan's Neverland Nightmare, I wasn't sure how I'd feel about a horror spin on such a classic tale. Neverland has always been about magic and adventure, but this film flips that on its head, turning it into a place of pure nightmare. The story follows Wendy on a desperate search for her brother Michael, who's been abducted by a terrifying, twisted version of Peter Pan and a disturbingly reimagined Tinker Bell. It's dark, unsettling, and completely unlike the tale we grew up with.

Now, I love a bold take on a familiar story, but some parts of this film went a little too far for my taste. Tinker Bell, portrayed as a drug-addicted and grotesque figure, felt more shocking than meaningful at times. The film definitely aims for disturbing, and while it hits the mark in places, it also feels like it's trying too hard. That said, the visuals are intense. The corrupted version of Neverland is creepy and atmospheric, and the tension doesn't let up.

Still, it wasn't perfect. There were moments when the film felt like it was going for shock value over actual storytelling, which kind of pulled me out of it. I can imagine that die-hard fans of the original might find it a bit too heavy-handed. But if you're up for something bold, weird, and willing to shake up childhood memories, it's an experience worth having-just don't expect it to be a comforting one.

The first ten to fifteen minutes of this movie were kind of cool. There were some creepy/cool visuals and the Peter character also felt properly creepy. Then the movie started. It's chalk full of bad acting, a plot that is absolutely insane and felt like a drug addict wrote it (wouldn't be surprised if that was true), and was just really really bad. By the end of this movie I felt emotionally and mentally drained and I don't think I could have handled much more had the running time been longer. It had some redeeming moments, but they were few and far between. Som decent gore and special effects but outside of that it was pretty much unwatchable. I can't recommend anyone watch this movie. Even if your a fan of the new children's character horror movie genre.

I really love when I start watching a movie expecting to end up disappointed, and the exact opposite happens.

A lot of things in this film aren't original, but it all feels more like a tribute to the original rather than a cheap rip-off. The atmosphere is excellent. The film is never boring, not for a moment, and the story is well thought-out. There are several unexpected moments that only add to the grotesqueness of the entire film. The characters are well developed, especially Peter Pan and Tinker Bell.

All in all - I expected (more or less) a standard Neverland story told through a horror lens, but I actually got so much more! This is a psychotic conglomeration of madness, filth, and drug addiction, and Peter Pan is the crown jewel of insanity and a unique portal to the land of Neverland.

Seven stars from me!
