Just saw it. It's half fairy tale half incredibly violent Spanish resistance story. The whole things in Spanish and is very dark.
There's a scene where the 'villain' demonstrates his nature by hitting someone in the face with the bottom of a bottle repeatedly, the sequence vividly shows the face gradually caving in. This kind of violence is intersperced with beautiful fairies and a hypnotic faun. It went for a mix of CGI and puppetry that made the whole thing incredibly realistic.
It's a very good film, with an ending that's either happy or sad... I really can't decide.

@ Reefgirl

I've finally got the internet at maaah house!

After watching the bottle scene I just sat there for five minutes thinking f---, I didn't think they could put that kind of stuff in films. Pity too because it could have been a beautiful kids film.
