The Scarapist

This movie is showing up in my feeds, so despite the release date, it caught my attention. Now I can see why. It's definitely original. I was actually surprised by the maturity and depth of the performances, especially Spicuzza. The music and and visual look of the film drew me in and held me there. Looking forward to more work by this director.

I love Katy Colloton and she's never looked better but the movie feels unfinished, like it's just roughed out, almost as if there are no connections, no joints. The story is about a therapist who abuses her power over her patients when she hypnotizes them. It starts out intriguing but becomes a letdown.

This film should at least be a 6.5 on here. The movie didn't drag out like a lot of other thriller movies i've seen of late and the ending was really unexpected. The insane therapist has some real talent and I'm hoping we see more of her. Mabye a part 2 soon?

This is another great film I've seen of late that I would never have heard of, if it wasn't for Amazon Prime recommending films like this to me. Long story short, the film is a great thriller movie and the actresses who plays the therapist was my favorite - she was convincing and really played into her character. A gem of a film if your into this psychological, thriller genre. This is easily a 8 or a 9.

I honestly didn't know about the statistics about bad therapists until I saw this film. It was really eye opening. Having the film then show us how bad it can get by sharing this true story was very effective. It's good when films are more than just entertainment but they also are trying to educate. It was effective in both.
