That’s exactly what you want out of a horror movie..."

Ciaran Foy creates a hyper-realised portrait that seems to turn the desolate urban setting into something that verges on a fantastical netherworld."
	* Review by David Wain([http://www.ukhorrorscene.com/citadel-2012-dvd-review/ link]) - ~~RATING~~		* Review by David Wain at UK Horror Scene (7/10) ([http://www.ukhorrorscene.com/citadel-2012-dvd-review/ link]) - "...this is a film that leaves you feeling deeply unsettled."

===Tentacle Ratings===
[[File:Citidel 2012film dero.jpg|thumb|200px|right|[[Dero|Creature]] from ''[[Citidel (2012 film)]]''...]]

A rough [[Tentacle Ratings|measure]] of how "Lovecraftian" the work is:
* SS___ (Two Tentacles: Barely Lovecraftian; vaguely similar in tone, could be a very loose adaptation)

After his wife is attacked and murdered by a gang of feral kids, the main character begins seeing the kids everywhere in the form of a race of terrifying, hideous, blind hobgoblin-like creatures that live in the basements of abandoned public housing buildings, steal infants and lock them in cages, and sense little else but terror (which they seem to feed on). An unreliable source of information in the movie claims that the creatures are inbred mutant children abandoned by their parents, but the creatures can basically be compared to [[Arthur Machen]]'s "[[Faerie|Little People]]", or to Lovecraft's [[Martense Kin]].

''Note: This rating is not intended as a measure of quality, merely of
how closely related to Lovecraftian "Weird" fiction the work is.''

==Synopsis (SPOILERS)==

{{spoiler|
After his wife is attacked and murdered by a gang of feral kids, the main character develops a fear of strangers and open spaces, and begins seeing the kids everywhere in the form of a race of terrifying, hideous, blind hobgoblin-like creatures that live in the basements of abandoned public housing buildings, steal infants and lock them in cages, and sense little else but terror (which they seem to feed on). An unreliable source of information in the movie claims that the creatures are inbred mutant children abandoned by their parents, but the creatures can basically be compared to Machen's "Little People", or to Lovecraft's Martense Kin. The creatures menace the man and his infant son, until, under the guidance of an eccentric priest, the man finally overcomes his terror and drags a bomb into the basement where the creatures hide, blowing them to ending credits.
