Reunion
Director Jake Mahaffy | 2021 | Horror, Thriller | English
A pregnant woman returns to her recently-deceased grandparents’ old family home to spend time with her estranged mother. What begins as a tenuous reunion slowly turns terrifying.
A psychological thriller that preys upon perception, Reunion sees veteran actress Julia Ormond deliver a tour-de-force performance of threateningly quiet intensity and features a twisty narrative that will burrow itself into the darkest corners of your mind.
“THE PERFORMANCES FROM THESE TWO ACTRESSES ARE FANTASTIC. YOU CAN CUT THE TENSION WITH A KNIFE. AND THAT’S JUST IN THE FIRST SCENE. 90 MINUTES LATER, YOU WILL NEED A CHAINSAW.”
– DAILY DEAD
“PAIRS WELL WITH CONTEMPORARIES LIKE ARI ASTER’S HEREDITARY, JENNIFER KENT’S THE BABADOOK, AND NATALIE ERIKA JAMES’ RELIC. IT’S INCISIVE, OBSERVANT, AND MAKES ITS CHARACTERS EARN THEIR CATHARSIS.”
– CINAPSE
“REUNION IS A BALEFULLY BRUISING AND UNSHAKABLY SINISTER TALE.”
– JOBLO’S ARROW IN THE HEAD
“A COMPELLING, WELL-MADE FILM THAT CREEPS UP ON YOU, REUNION HAS A STING IN THE TAIL THAT IS HARD TO FORGET.”
– ALLIANCE OF WOMEN FILM JOURNALISTS
“THE SKELETONS IN THE CLOSET ARE OUT AND ON FULL, GRISLY DISPLAY.”
– GHASTLY GRINNING
“A VERY STRIKING MOVIE, EVENTUALLY ENCOMPASSING SOME GROTESQUE, FANTASTICAL ELEMENTS.”
– 48 HILLS
“HAS EERIE ATMOSPHERE IN SPADES”
– FILMCRAZIEST
“A TAUT, THRILLING HORROR THAT SLOWLY BUT SURELY RATCHETS UP THE TENSION TO A THRILLING, HEART POUNDING FINALE.”
– THE MOVIE ARMY
“DELICIOUSLY DARK WITH SLOW BUILDING DREAD.”
