The Others | Stream Now on HBO Max
Plot: A devoutly religious mother of two photosensitive children moves her family to the English coast during World War II. As she awaits word on her missing husband, chilling events and visions make her believe something supernatural is occurring in her home.
Our Take: The Others plays out more like a gothic thriller, so if you’re a chicken like myself, this spooky ghost story might be one to try. Full disclaimer: I did cover my eyes during some of the more dread-inducing moments, so I suggest bringing something to hide behind. Nicole Kidman’s portrayal of a woman who grows increasingly paranoid as she becomes convinced that her super-creepy giant house is haunted is probably my favorite thing about this film, and possibly my favorite performance of hers to date. — Vanessa
