Living in Bristol it was pretty hard to take Natalie’s West Country accent seriously but interesting to see a film shot in Bath. Slightly comedic opening doesn’t really give you too much of a clue where this is going but it at least becomes more interesting. It could have gone harder but passed some time with decent performances from both. Frankly we need more psychological dramas (The superior ‘magpie’ really blew this out of the water though)

Really. Someone said there weren’t enough hard boiled detective shows with a psychologically damaged on the edge policeman who doesn’t do stuff by the book?
He’s even got a wall with picture and clues connected by string.
They get a lot of mileage out of that ‘stolen from horror films ‘trope of them displaying how they’re feeling inside by doing a crazy stop motion head shake etc .
Almost acceptable but the last two eps are a huge drag
Plus there’s not really much detecting.Translated from by -
The Night House 2020
This film starts fantastically with immediate ‘hereditary’ vibes. Seeped with atmosphere and dread throughout and one jump scare that had myself and my partner exclaiming loudly. I’m an avid horror film watcher and the scene was just so uncanny it really got me.
There is a major revelation and I really thought at the point it was made That the film couldn’t fail. Unfortunately it suddenly gets very rushed and at the end I was praying the credits wouldn’t roll…
