Phase 7

There is a pervading menace of distrust and anxiety that only grows as the film progresses, and watching Coco try to navigate these soon-to-be murderous waters while also doing his best to keep his wife as in the dark as possible giddily surreal.

Gore enthusiasts will find the body count acceptable, others may find the splatter a bit crude.

A nail-bitingly tense thriller, with keen performances and a savvy, evocative soundtrack.

Goldbart deftly conducts his film as a strange absurd look at the true meaning of neighbours, and maybe the true meaning of boredom, in a fresh and highly original film.
