Genuinely disturbing. That nursing home would have to be the worst in New Zealand! Yes, it's fictional, but having seen my share of stroke patients and dementia patients in nursing homes, it's not far off the mark. Wonderfully unhinged performance by John Lithgow.
Top film not so scary but there is tension and great acting. Its fun.
The acting was top notch, but what would you expect with such a great cast list! The story showcases how psychopaths operate in a realistic and terrifyingly common setting.
Very good. Original. Great acting.
I wanted to like this more than I did. Interesting idea that fell quite short. Great performances though.
