Director : Mike Flanagan
Running Time : 103 mins
Kaylie Russell (Gillan) attempts to clear the name of her brother Tim (Thwaites) who was committed to an institution eleven years earlier, after being accused of killing their parents. The truth, according to the siblings, is that a haunted mirror was responsible for controlling the minds of their parents and forcing them into violent deadly acts.
This slow paced psychological horror feels, at first, as if it is just a standard flick that uses spooks and clever camera tricks to garner scares out of people, but the beauty of this is it has so many layers if you care to look for them. You can either read it as it is presented – a family is tormented by a haunted mirror that gets them to kill each other – or you can see this as a clever movie that actually presents a haunted mirror that tricks people into thinking that events have happened when they are all in their head. Did the murders even take place? Or are the kids and their folks doomed from the moment they first looked in the mirror and never recovered? Decide for yourself.
