Red Riding Hood 2011

Red Riding  Hood  (2011)    A werewolf roams the forest surrounding a village, Valerie's sister is killed by the wolf.  Valerie was planning to run away with Peter after the announcement of her arranged marriage to wealthy Henry.  The villagers kill a wolf but it is not a werewolf, they send for a famed werewolf hunter.  Panic and suspicion grip the village when they learn the wolf could be one of the villagers.
    As soon as I saw the setting of a medieval village, I wanted to stop watching.  My first instinct was correct, this is not good.  Overacting, poor acting, ridiculousness.  2* (I didn't like this movie)

100 min, horror directed by Catherine Hardwicke with Amanda Seyfried, Billy Burke, Gary Oldman, Virginia Madsen, Max Irons, Julie Christie.
Note:  Blockbuster 3*, imdb 5.1 out of 10, 11% critic 41% audience on Rotten Tomatoes.
