Sissy

As far as production goes, it was an impressive feat alone to have a newb young filmmaker Hannah Barlow co-write, co-direct, co-produce and star in this Australian low budget independent film. Very few seasoned filmmakers with big budgets can wear that many hats and pull it off. It was well shot and cast with convincing performances, especially Aisha Dee as Cecilia. It wasn't perfect by any means, but still a fun one-time watchable entry into the hugely done slasher genre. It certainly is geared more to the younger generation, especially the score, which definitely was your typical loud and overbearing B-film grade, but with added teen-tune melodies. The cinematography and gore visual effects were impressive. This film may not appeal to everyone, but it sure will be to all the TikTok'ers and the like.

...but never really delivered. It is nonetheless a commentary, though extreme, on the impact of bullying and the bulltish of the influencer phenomonon. Described as a horror comedy, I wondered if the latter term was inadvertent. All that said, a very good cast...variously sweet (Aisha Dee and Hannah Barlow - great) and genuinely horrible (Emily De Margheriti, Daniel Monks and Grace Barrett, as a terribly unsympathetic psychologist).

I liked this movie more than I thought that I would. I was very shocked at how good it was do to the fact that the beginning was a little slow in my opinion. I was definitely rooting for Sissy in this movie and understood why she did what she did. I don't agree with her actions and I personally would not have done any of the things she did in this movie but I definitely understand why she did it. I have seen women with YouTube videos like the ones shown in this movie and it makes me think or wonder how many women could be like Sissy(promoting self love, security and positivity) but are in fact insecure themselves!!! Lol.

You bump into a friend from long ago, she invites you to her hen night and you go, then a bachelorette weekend, it's so nice that you can spend, some time together, to reacquaint, go with the flow. Alas the place where you are staying has an another, a person from your past who caused a spot of bother, and there's clearly still a trace, from the scar that's on her face, of the grudge that she finds difficult to smother. Soon things start to go off course and quite awry, as tensions rise no matter how you try, to bury your resentment, pull away from hobbled descent and wash the tears from streaming, prying, crying eyes.

Cecilia finds catching up with old school acquaintances a little more challenging than she'd imagined, but with her rope of invincibility she does her best to pull through.

Great performances and a genuinely original take on an often encountered theme.

Good plot. I wouldn't consider it a horror movie, more of a gore or suspense movie. I found somewhere that it was categorized under "comedy", but I think it's not part of that genre at all.

I don't like watching new movies in general, but I don't regret giving this one a chance. I love that they used a "mental health activist" influencer to portray narcissistic personality disorder. Beyond the development of the film, these influencers are some of the worst things about social media, and I think it's great that they use it to show that "not everything you see is reality".

The ending is twistedly brilliant.
