Hogwood: A Modern Horror Story

The slackly constructed short, narrated by Game of Thrones actor Jerome Flynn doesn't convince as compellingly as, say, Food Inc., but you won't be able to shake the horrific hidden camera footage.

There is an undeniable shock factor, a tried and tested controversial tactic, though justified in this case and difficult to avoid in order to drive home the film's message in such a powerful way.

The documentary is worth watching once. Its biggest problem is just how close to greatness it is while being so far at the same time.
