Toss in some vintage Douglass Sirk, a dash of Todd Haynes, a dollop of Mamet'esque/James Ellroy snappy dialogue & you have the Albatross aesthetic:)
This is a brilliant, original film that manages to achieve a varied array of tonal shifts that go from creepy & hallucinatory to Merchant/Ivory class study... Obviously, others will have problems with the fact the film isn't declaring itself as just 'one thing': thriller, horror, LGBT, romance, etc. The filmmaker has created a most fascinating mise en scene in this multi-character study, which vacillates from a 'coming out of the closet' to Cassavetes- like journey of personal discovery with Katherine Gauthier (a star in the making, her performance is brilliant here) as the Gena Rowlands like heroine... Combine that w/ an almost Mamet-esq cadence & witty banter, however Boston Brahmin instead of Chicago. Yes, after a few viewings, once the clever tonal audacity has settled, one can easily spot a plot hole or two, but it should not deter any cinephile from really discovering a new voice in Film.
It's my sincerest hope Director (obviously w/ an incredible background in Production Design as he put his talents to work turning his parents humble abode in Ontario to a swank mansion of sorts... all on a shoestring during COVID), Myles Yaksich gets to make another film w/ more tools at his disposal. He's an amazing talent & can't wait to see what he does next!

This was an extremely well written thriller that went psychologically much deeper than most horror films of it's ilk. Chad Dossett's script allows the narrative unfurl organically and Dossett's direction gives the actors plenty of room to roam as the leads turned in fantastic performances.
The marketing is effective at getting eyeballs but a tad misleading, give this one a shot...

This was a very well written, well acted and assured & confident feature debut from the team of Chris Knoblock & Dana White. Jonas Ball and Jack McGee also give fantastic performances. It was an incredibly original film too, it zigged when normal films zag... I never quite knew where it was going. The production value was off the charts, the film looks and feels like a mulit- million $ effort... Very well done!
