I thought this movie went down real smooth! Definitely had some pretty squeamish parts and good scares but didn't leave me lying awake at night which I appreciate. I thought the characters were solid! Fiona was great, and her mom, Lizzie, provided some nice levity/ a different tone. The actor who played Daniel had a great presence about him, too. Honestly, they all turned in great performances.
Also shoutout to the special effects and props team on this one, I bet they had a ton of fun putting it together (trying not to spoil anything in particular!) If you're a fan of the genre, this is definitely worth a watch!

Granted, despite of never having heard about the 2025 horror movie "The Other", of course I opted to watch it simply because it was a horror movie that I hadn't already seen. I am a huge fan of all things horror, after all. And I sat down to watch the movie without knowing what I was in for, and thus harbored no expectations.
Writer Paul Etheredge put together a rather odd script and storyline. Now, I am not saying that "The Other" was bad, but it was a very odd storyline. I enjoyed it, though, I have to admit, because there was something profoundly disturbing about the narrative and the events that unfolded. It was a nicely constructed narrative from writer Paul Etheredge.
The only familiar faces on the cast list for me were Dylan McTee, Phuong Kubacki and Shawnee Smith. The acting performances in the movie were good.
There is a lot of interesting visual scenes in the movie, and the effects are nice. So that definitely added to the overall enjoyment of the movie. Some of the scenes might be a bit difficult for particularly sensitive people. But as a seasoned horror veteran, then this was a mere walk in the park. I liked the special effects and visuals used in the movie, no doubt about that.
If you enjoy horror movies and like horror movies that go one step beyond and sort of ventures into something disturbing, then by all means give "The Other" a go. I was genuinely entertained throughout the course of the 98 minutes that the movie played for.
My rating of writer and director Paul Etheredge's 2025 movie "The Other" lands on a six out of ten stars.

This film combines the body horror of Alien with the psychological horror of Rosemary's Baby to produce its dark cinematic progeny. It's a viscerally unsettling film that will haunt you long after you've watched it. The film builds slowly but with increasing intensity until it has you in its grip. The brutal imagery is overwhelming at times, but it works well with the subtle story line. The editing is superb, and once you're in the grip of the film, it doesn't let you go until the end. Give yourself to this film, let it take you over, and give it time to gestate. This is horror as it's meant to be: dark, haunting, brutal, and ultimately purgative.
The story follows Robin and Daniel, a couple struggling with infertility who decide to foster Kathelia, a mute orphan with a traumatic past. What begins as an act of love and hope gradually transforms into a nightmare as supernatural forces and the child's dark history collide in their home
It is a rare gem in contemporary horror - a film that respects its audience's intelligence while delivering genuine frights. It's a testament to what can be achieved when talented filmmakers approach horror with both craft and heart. This is destined to become a cult classic.
Highly recommended for fans of: Psychological horror, supernatural thrillers, and anyone who appreciates expertly crafted tension.

The Other starts off slow, focusing on atmosphere and character as foster parents Robin and Daniel welcome the mysterious, mute Kathelia into their home. While the pacing may test your patience early on, it steadily builds unease with subtle supernatural elements and a growing sense that something is deeply wrong. Once it hits its stride, the film becomes intensely disturbing, with gory, haunting visuals that stick with you. Paul Etheredge leans into dread and emotional tension rather than cheap scares, making the payoff feel earned. If you're into slow-burn horror with a brutal edge, this one is worth watching.
