November 25, 2009This is a nasty and disturbing film, brilliantly realised as just that but it lacks a certain credibility. It's like a clean cut 70's Exploitation film but just 40 years too late. This might be the future of horror but it needs to be more convincing, otherwise it's a little too m...( read more)

August 19, 2009Sickening and repulsive low budget horror film. Silly at times, but always disturbing. Takes you deep into the filth and dark corridors in the life of a true psychopathic family. It's sad to imagine that this is how some crazy people really live. Mum & Dad may be a hard movie to ...( read more)

August 5, 2009Jesus wept! I just watched this movie after getting it from Netflix and it was brutal!!!!!

November 12, 2009I thought that this movie was really well done considering they had what is known as a micro-budget! To be fair, I think it's good anyway, and there hasn't been a brit-horror quite like this. Mum & Dad are disturbed, but I sometimes feel like I can relate to parts of mum (that's ...( read more)

November 11, 2009its overrated and for ardent gorehounds, the gory parts are disappointing, just some cutting on flesh some blood and some stabbing. nothing too violent. its is fast-paced and keeps u engaged, though.

October 19, 2009Wow. Umm, epic. I love that the family got what was coming to them...and the tables turned. Super satisfying ending. England (and other European countries) do horror way better than we do. Even if it is a b-movie or low budget...like this.
