8/10
excellent psychological study of traumas impact on the mind
29 June 2024
The knuckleheads claiming this is the worst movie they've ever seen must be 12 years old. Or maybe they are feeling let down because this movie may have marketed to them incorrectly as a horror movie, which it is not. This is a thoughtful, moody and mysterious psychological study of the after effects of extreme trauma. Nothing is spoon fed, nuance prevails.

Set in an old creepy house in the woods, it is the story of a suffering woman confronting her demons - within and without - as she deals with her passive aggressive in-law cousin and her emotionally stunted manipulative husband.

A very strong debut from Olivia West Lloyd.
