The Visit (2015)
Written & directed
by M. Night Shyamalan this film stars Olivia DeJonge, Ed Oxenbould,
Denna Dunagan and Peter McRobbie. Two young teenagers go to spend a
week staying with the grandparents they have never met on a farm.
While this film works
as a horror film I was left slightly uncomfortable by essentially
using dementia as the basis for the film. You can see the twist in
the film coming a long way off and the film never really connects the
over all theme of ageing and mortality with the characters. There are
good performances from the cast both young and old but I do not think
this film ever really hit it's stride.
3/5
