C.H.U.P.A.

About This Movie

C.H.U.P.A. feels like a blend of whimsy and dread, with its oddball title hinting at something both playful and sinister. The pacing is a bit uneven, but it carries you through a world where fantasy meets a creeping sci-fi horror, which makes for some interesting dynamics. The practical effects, though not always polished, add a tangible texture that digital effects just can't replicate. The performances have this quirky charm, especially from the kids, who seem to embody that raw, unfiltered imagination we often lose. There’s an underlying theme of childlike hope clashing with impending doom—a contrast that keeps things intriguing. It's definitely got its own vibe, and not quite like anything else from 2020.
