    Storyline

    • Trivia
      The superbly crafted redcap goblins were not puppets. They are played by actors Paul Warren, Rick Warden and stunt performers, all wearing costumes and practical goblin heads. According to director Jon Wright they were shot on double-sized sets, which give the illusion of people who are half size. Rather than use animatronics to animate the heads, they added CGI motion capture faces.
    • Goofs
      When Maya and Jamie are walking away from the Little People hut, and the camera POV changes from facing the hut to facing the main house, the shadows they cast are not consistent (at first, their shadows are in front of them, then their shadows are abruptly behind). Additionally, at times, an actor casts multiple shadows, revealing that the illumination is from multiple set lights not sunlight.

    Not bad at all
    I gave Unwelcome a higher rating than it deserves, just to try and balance the score, because the movie really is worth at least one viewing.

    The biggest issue I had with the film was towards the end, when the inevitable redcap payment is demanded; those scenes severely lacked logic and coherence, much less resolution. Some of the horror scenes are very timid, while others are outright silly with gross-out gore, again. With no logical reasons why.

    Aside from those ultimately minor problems, this is still an overall decent enough horror movie to watch at least once, even if you're looking at your phone for most of it.
