The Monster

What makes this creature feature so outstanding is the acting from the two leads, Zoe Kazan and  Ella Ballentine. Both gave such superlative performances that I completely believed them and thus was brought wholly into this tense and claustrophobic world. The direction was tight and edgy and the script, peppered with flashbacks to draw out the mother-daughter relationship, was excellent. Highly recommended. 4/5
