Cradle of Fear (2001)

Option 1Can't Watch?

Wait 30secs. Movie still not playing? Click the "Can't Watch?" tab.

If the movie didn't load, it means you are being blocked by a security service we use. This can happen for a number of reasons.

Click this first

A new tab will open and a basic security check like a captcha will be performed. After completing the check, close that page and return here.

Refresh this page. Wait 30 secs. The movie should load and you can just hit play.



If it still doesn't play, Click here to watch the movie

The movie should now start playing in a new tab of your browser or begin downloading to your device. This option has the minor disadvantage that English-language movies with optional subtitles in the movie player will not include these subs with this method.

The new system here has been designed keeping in mind even people with low internet speeds sub-8mbps. Even if you have a really bad connection, you should still be able to watch the movie without any issues if you:
Start the movie. Pause it. Wait for 30-45 seconds. Start playing again.

This 'Can't Watch' method really only works if it's your specific device/browser that's interfering with the player. There is no real advantage of speed here. Or if there is a temp network glitch or read lag from the server disk.

If you're still having problems, try using 'Incognito mode' in your browser. On iPhones, especially older ones, use Chrome instead of Safari. Might help.

IMPORTANT: Please make sure that the newly opened tab is not an ad popup asking you to download some software or whatever. Close any such popups and don't download any software - those are ads. Nothing is needed to be done by you other than to complete the security check which is often automated.

Does anyone know where I can find the 2 hr 15 min version? I have a copy but the resolution is so low (360×480) that when you go full screen it loses sharpness and becomes somewhat blurry . 🙁

Fair warning, a cat gets repeatedly stabbed and eventually disemboweled about 50 minutes in.

Cradle of Fear is a nostalgic thrill for me; watched it as a teenager and revisited recently. Underrated film with a fun factor, though the band COF might be overrated. Beware Dani’s wrath; you could be rocking the cradle of a lil demon xD

Nice movie, cool 2000’s direct to video trash, reminds me of those edgy figure concepts on spawn toys.

Overall, the film is not bad at all, but it is not one of those films that I would like to watch again. I like the atmosphere of gothic and camouflage. Again, on low-budget film it surprised. 5,5/10

I expected a pile of poo and I got a pile of poo. Karen Standley doing her title dance would not have been out of place. Poor acting and an overly-indugent stretching of scenes made it hard work to watch. The only thing worthy was the music and with a couple more days in a studio it would have been stonking throughout. As for snuff being filmed in Mill Hill East thats entirely plausible.

It’s pretty good. I like “The Sick Room” story. 2 and 1/2 stars.

Their first albums are really good especially “Dusk and her embrace” and “the principle of evil made flesh”. From there they went kinda downhill
