A terrific little short that keeps you guessing until the end. A young woman brings her boyfriend home to meet the family, but her sister makes some horrendous allegations about family relationships. Is she telling the truth, or seriously mentally unwell?
The atmosphere is chilling, helped by brilliant use of a ticking clock, creaking floorboards and ... silence. The poor guest feels like he has walked into a war zone, as claims and counterclaims challenge his own judgment.
First impressions can be right, but can equally be wrong. This had my mind racing ahead to try to preempt the denouement.
The only name I recognised was Iain de Caestecker, usually reliable but his character is the weak link in this, written as a psychology student but pitched as a utility psychiatrist / social worker / pharmacist / police officer.
Well worth a watch, and only a few minutes wasted if you disagree.
