Woe
Directed by Matthew Goodhue
One year after their father’s death, Charlie endlessly repairs the old family house while his sister, Betty, decides to sell their father’s car without her brother’s consent - the same car their father committed suicide in. As the two avoid confronting their prolonged grief, mental health, and each other, a hunchbacked creature shadows their every move. Their estranged Uncle Pete, believed to be dead, claims to have answers - if only Charlie and Betty would get out of their own heads and accept help.
A brother and sister stumble upon their father's secret one year after his death. They soon learn that this secret may not be his alone.
Cast: Adam Halferty, Jessie Rabideau, Ryan Kattner, James Russo

While visually stylish, could’ve benefited from less concrete representations (visions, hallucinations?) of the mental maladies afflicting the central character and more abstraction on that account. It does feature one of the best representations of a believable, ordinary couple (Jessie Rabideau and Ryan Kattner) I’ve seen in a horror film which helps ground the proceedings.
Not worth the time IMO
If you watch indie horror you have seen this before. It’s a metaphor for mental illness where miserable people sit and stare at each other in miserable, awkward silence, punctuated with moments of ear splitting noise. If you like movies that are quiet and vague you will like this but I did it.
no skulls, but it forced me to give one to post this... i had more fun watching my cat bite her toenails 😂 i had no clue from beginning to end. #reclaimingmytime
very slow and didnt make as much sense as it thinks it did but if you like vague movies here you go
