9/10
Brilliant

This movie is brilliant. A gay couple moves to suburbia in 1995 and ends up enduring homophobia and prejudice seemingly but something more dark may be afoot. The movie is packed with symbolism and twists leading up to a mega creepy, inspired finale. Chapman is amazing in the lead. He makes every moment feel genuine. Kurtis David Harder injects the proceedings with an impressive amount of smarts and edge of your seat dread inducing atmosphere. Everything about this film is impressive from the gorgeous cinematography to the haunting score. It's without a doubt the best horror film to feature a gay lead but it's also one of the best films of the year!

****.5/5
