Relic - Dunkles Vermächtnis - Kritiken

...a low-key but satisfying cut of sustained dread.

...a horror movie with a heart, a film that uses a surreal narrative to tell a story absolutely rooted in reality.

The beauty of this film (...) is that you feel it first, and think about it later.

...a sinister slow-blooming portrait of domestic horror.

Fullpotten är ett faktum...

En isande utflykt i det okända.

...svårt att glömma slutet [...] som förenar fasa med ömhet och sorg på ett avskalat (!) sätt.

It has excellent acting which will leave you scared and heart-broken.

...a genuinely creepy thriller.

...James captures that sense of incremental, irrevocable loss, balancing the uncanny and the intimate in a way rarely seen...

...the fear of growing old haunts this Hallowe’en masterpiece.

This horror movie has a pretty slow build, but when it kicks in, it does so with head-spinning impact, cleverly and dynamically achieving a visual, physical manifestation of its themes and emotions.

Dank, heavy and pallid, Relic is Australian Gothic.

Det är utmanande, men blir aldrig tråkigt. Detta tack vare skådespelarnas närvaro och det växande obehaget som resolut sluter upp omkring dem, och mig som åskådare.
