Deadly Virtues

Post by leytonrocks »

anyone else catch this subversion of the home invasion movie? cracking low budget UK film with a fantastic performances - all contained in a semi-detached suburban home ... heard it described at a feminist thriller ... anyone else see it/agree?

A psychological thriller that surprisingly didn't take advantage of the kinky elements displayed in the trailer and also eschewed the more graphic content of other home invasion movies for something more unsettling and emotionally driven. The plot is intriguing and maintains interest and has a twist in the tail that makes this worth a watch. 7 / 10
Spoiler:
I did think the wife was going to tie up the husband at the end, but I guess the arrival of his lover probably made that idea impractical.
No tears, please. It's a waste of good suffering.
