An introspective and decidedly gory interpretation of a certain Brtohers Grimm fairytale about an innocent girl and a big bad wolf, A WICKED TALE is the first offering from Singapore in the history of FanTasia. Director Tong uses his love of film to his advantage, incorporating a self-aware silent film aesthetic reminiscent of Canuck director Guy Maddin. While the sexual danger presented by the wolf is pushed to the limit, the film manages to hit the right tone by being more suggestive, setting the viewer up for an unexpected ending. Visually enticing for such a low budget, A Wicked Tale is a seductive pleasure. - Owen Livermore
