"A Wicked Tale is Singaporean filmmaker Tzang Merwyn Tong's bizarre re-working of the Grimm Brothers’ fairy tale Little Red Riding Hood.

Presented in a chilling style that combines the silent-era revivalism of Guy Maddin with the sadistic horror of Audition-era Takashi Miike, this puzzling, low-budget oddity should get a reaction out of even the most jaded horror fan. Tong doesn't communicate in conventional horror language. Instead, he creates an amalgam of moods—innocence, seductiveness, surrealism and terror—that helps put the grim back in Grimm."
