The Tooth Fairy
A woman and her daughter (Nicole Muñoz) encounter a deadly legend at a bed-and-breakfast.
Why it matters
A tense folk horror tale that twists bedtime innocence into a nightmare rooted in local legend.
- Nicole Muñoz delivers a quietly compelling performance, anchoring the film’s creeping dread.
- Practical creature effects recall the tactile nightmares of ’80s horror, lending physical weight to the Tooth Fairy menace.
- The isolated bed-and-breakfast setting amplifies the claustrophobic atmosphere, perfect for fans of regional hauntings and rural folklore.
- While pacing falters and some plot beats feel familiar, the film’s commitment to a chilling myth elevates it above standard late-2000s direct-to-DVD fare.
