Skip it. This sounds like a cynical horror remake trading on twisted nostalgia rather than genuine creativity—the 'sinister Cricket' and graphic body-horror premise feel like shock value over substance. Without critical validation and an unproven concept, there's no reason to spend your evening on what's likely a gimmicky slog.

Plot

Influenced by a sinister Cricket and created by Geppetto, Pinocchio launches a violent crusade to carve himself into a real boy like his brother James, one piece at a time.
