“If youu0026#39;re a Gogol follower – skip it. The original story ends as the movie proceeds. Yet you would definitely like to step into the new fantasy world, glamorously picturized by the talented scenarist+director. Russia/Ukraine has an awful lot to offer – the whole abyss of an amazing mythology, with stunningly scary monsters rooted in a fascinating history. While the native language speaker will certainly find the movie rather colorful and surprising, the u0026quot;foreigneru0026quot; will be stunned by the visualizations and enjoy the unexpected appearance of a Englishman scientist whose stepping in turns this originally u0026quot;horroru0026quot; scenario into a detective, u0026quot;The Hound of the Baskervillesu0026quot; style. Strongly recommended to those who liked u0026quot;Hellboyu0026quot;, u0026quot;Sleepy Hollowu0026quot; and u0026quot;The Hound of the Baskervillesu0026quot;…u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003e8 out of 10”
