Plotline: A psychological thriller rippling with suspense, Kindred follows vulnerable mother-to-be Charlotte as she is taken in by her recently deceased boyfriend’s mother and her stepson, who seem increasingly obsessed with her every move Charlotte’s suspicions grow about Margaret and Thomas’ intentions for her unborn child.
Who would like it: People who love demented families, cults, cat and mouse and psychological horror
High Points: I like the way this movie was shot because it highlights the isolation of our heroine
Complaints: There is the suggestion of a cult and lots of symbolism of the occult but the movie doesn’t explain it, it’s just left as unanswered questions
Overall: This was pretty stressful to watching and the ending feels like an uppercut to the jaw.
Stars: 5
Where I watched it: Shudder
