In fact, you might be put in mind of a certain Mark Twain story.  Which is exactly how it should be.  All you need to know is that you&#8217;re watching a movie from one of the most talented and little known directors working today.  Meet Paul Andrew Williams, whose movies are as distinct as his name is banal.  I use the acronym &#8220;PAW&#8221; to keep all his various first names in the right order, but I&#8217;m still liable to call him Peter Allen Williams or some such thing.<\/p>\n<p>The Cottage is British and I promise you that it is indeed a horror movie, albeit unlike any other horror movie.  And that&#8217;s about all I want to tell you.  You&#8217;re lucky if you get to see it knowing only that.  Frankly, I&#8217;m a little jealous.  <\/p>\n<p>Also, I&#8217;m tired of people saying adoring things about Andy Serkis based on having only seen Lord of the Rings, King Kong, and Rise of the Planet of the Apes.  Do you people even know what Serkis looks like?  He&#8217;s just as riveting when he comes out from behind the CG.  And, in the case of The Cottage, he&#8217;s perfectly at home in less serious settings.<\/p>\n<p>Get The Cottage from Netflix <a href=\"http:\/\/movies.netflix.com\/WiMovie\/The_Cottage\/70095918?trkid=2361637\">here<\/a>.
