Red Riding Hood

Red Riding Hood is an American horror film directed by Catherine Hardwicke and starring Amanda Seyfried as the title role, from a screenplay by David Leslie Johnson.It is very loosely based on the folk tale Little Red Riding Hood collected by both Charles Perrault under the name "Le Petit Chaperon Rouge" (Little Red Riding Hood) and several decades later by the Brothers Grimm as "Rotkäppchen" (Little Redcap).

Movie Synopsis
Valerie (Amanda Seyfried) is a beautiful young woman who faces the dilemma between the two men. He falls in love with the woodcutter, Peter (Shiloh Fernandez), but his parents had arranged for her to marry Henry (Irons), a rich young man. Do not want to lose one another, Valerie and Peter are planning to run away together when they learned that Valerie's brother had been killed by human wolves who seek opportunity in the dark forest around their village. For years, residents have maintained a truce with the beast, a werewolf while offering an animal sacrifice monthly. But under a blood red moon, the wolf has raised the stakes by taking a human life. Mastered taste for revenge, the people call the famous werewolf hunter, Father Solomon (Oldman), to help them kill the wolf. But the arrival of Solomon brought unintended consequences when he warned that the wolf, who took human form during the day, could be one of them. While casualties continue to rise each day
