Brilliant film! A "Hitchcokian" thriller with all the trimmings. Extreme wealth controlled by Dina Cotton, a strong-willed and very unlikable matriarch surrounded by three greedy, ungrateful adult children: Gill, Harold, and Iona. Yes, it is a family setting.
Tired of their mother's stranglehold on their inheritances, the children look for someone to "Gaslight" their mother. Maggie, a former military special opps soldier, reluctantly accepts the work in order to help her foster mother who is struggling.
The story culminates on the night of Dina's birthday party. That's when all hell breaks loose. These evil children have designed a Machiavellian plot that forces Maggie into hiding.
The chase begins and there is twist upon twist. As a family drama, you will wonder if this is about nature versus nurture. Like any great thriller, you will see that the ending is truly ironic. This is where nurture and nature work together for justice in a cold and cruel world. Excellent ending.

While most mystery buffs probably figured out what had happened to the missing wife and mother in ten minutes, it was a good story.
It was a bit slow for me but I did enjoy the acting. All of the characters had little quirks, making them so very human.
Yes, it was a low budget film, but it worked anyway. I think the happy ending is important. We all need a little bit of hope, especially now.

This movie should be renamed, TEPID LOVE. I have never seen a love story more devoid of passion and expressions of love.
I can only imagine that someone wrote this to educate teenagers?
Who knows? As a writer, I can only imagine that the person who did write this has never been nor felt real crazy, give it all up love. I am sorry for that because love, with all it's downfalls, and perilous roads, is probably the most wonderful thing you will every experience.
