Relic (2020)
Trailer featuring a glimpse of the grossest thing in the film
Showing the variety of the genre in one title, Relic is clearly the result of melancholy horror films like The Babadook and Hereditary doing well as it features a family burdened by a supernatural take on a very real concern in a gloomy old house. The initial apparent setup of a mother with dementia going missing after claiming her house was haunted suggests one kind of story, this goes in another direction.
Ultimately I don’t need a horror metaphor to tell me dementia is horrible.
Well crafted, grim, and interesting if you go in knowing it’s not fun at all.
