Citadel
Directed by Ciaran Foy
An agoraphobic man enlists a renegade priest to save his daughter from an evil gang of feral children who attacked his wife. Urged to pity the impoverished youngsters by a social worker, Tommy (the wonderful Aneurin Barnard) turns instead to the priest (James Cosmo of GAME OF THRONES) who believes the killer kiddies are demons who need to be exterminated. Roger Ebert hit the nail on the head when he called CITADEL, "a horrifying thriller painted on a small and very dark canvas." It's an intensely disturbing film sure to keep you from falling asleep tonight.

Pretty good movie... bit of a slow burn in places but good storyline and acting.
A very good film. Edgy and unremittingly dark. Brilliant concept set before the background of decaying public housing. Possibly the only time that the goes astray is when it attempts to soften the blow of its true nature as a dysfunctional urban nightmare. Go dark or go home.
Nice little movie. Believable acting. Weird situation. But nice ending. Would recommend.
not bad, definately not a perfect movie, but not bad
not sure how I missed this one - really great
