Creative setting; vague theme
Brackenwood is unique and surrealistic, as are the creatures that inhabit it. Bitey's quest is generally interesting and suspenseful--the only rough spots being the opening dream sequence and one of the prowly's encounter with a small, white, insect-like creature--but it's hard to understand what it all means. Sure, he gets his comeuppance after bullying his fellow Brackenwood inhabitants, but his drinking urine-contaminated water ultimately has very little to do with his fight with the prowlies. The visually appealing location saves this movie from being below average.
